[email protected] is alive!
Got an email from the long-dormant [email protected] mailing list! I though we'd never see that mail group again, but lo and behold, it's back! Already about 15 people have responded to a roll call of sorts.

Re: [email protected] is alive!
It used to be you sent a "join" email, and the list owner had to approve it before you were signed up. Trouble was the list owner died and had no one that had been designated as owner before he passed, so no new member approvals or other list maintenance was possible. It faded to inactivity.
Be aware that there is some chance the "reactivation" was a phishing attempt. The person that posted the activation email is unknown to the old E24 community on the list. It could be a genuine member that was strictly a watcher and not a participant, but the feeling is it's someone who's managed to hack the list. Tread carefully. The previous members who responded are ones we recognize. Not so the originator of the first message in years.

Re: [email protected] is alive!
I've discovered, remembered, actually, that I'd signed up for the Yahoo group but was never approved before the list owner died, so, although I get the emails I cannot post to the group. I was wondering why my reply to the roll call email never showed up. I went to the home website and my membership is still "pending", all these years later.
