I just tried your BBeeS and couldn't get on at any better than 7200.
Your system reported 9600. It was dropping out on me too, so I had to
leave. Will try again later - maybe I'll grt a better line.
You are right - I tried an attachment for another fellow and it was
refused by his provider - their limit is 600,000 bytes.
Will break it down into four chunks or so.
You realise anyone can get the logs from the listserv - It's just a
little slow, because it has a limit on how much it will send you in any 7
hour period of time. It also answers when it feels like it. The log
shows up with your regular mail any time from a few minutes to hours later.
I just send an ordinary mail message to the listserv (not the list) saying
only:
GET BEE-L LOG9410
The listserve address is [log in to unmask]
The above example is for the current one (94=year, 10=Oct). It has the
latest posts. I missed some mail due to system crashes at my provider and
this is the only way, for example, that I found out that Jean-Pierre had
answered my previous post about queen rearing.
Actually I should post some of this to the list, because I think many
don't realise how easy it is. It's in the FAQ, but it's hard to read and
understand.
