I don't suppose people could post in plain text rather than html format.
Html ends up producing pages of code that we have to scroll through to get

Subject: really a message from keith...
Dear All
Apologies but it seems my email address has been 'spoofed' and some ***** is
sending messages to this list purporting to come from me. They are not.
I've talked to our IT person and he says we can;t do much about it as he's
sure the email address is not being picked up at this end... I've received
the same sort of thing from names I recognise; fortunately, the number of
them seems to decline over time.
Note, though, that all these messages have attachments and, as the list does
not allow attachments, clearly (!) I would not be sending a message with one
contained therein.
Could the list be set up to reject automatically emails with an attachment?
Cheers, Keith

I'd like to see this. Attachments shouldn't be necessary for this list (for
documents people want to make accessible, just post them somewhere and send
along the link), and they are a vector for viruses (as these messages have
likely been).

Subject: Re: really a message from keith...
And here's another (more obviously technical) problem with the list:
Having just sent the previous message, I got something like five error
messages back about incorrect address (e.g. people subscribed to the list --
including the "maintainer" -- whose email address are no longer valid).
This should not be happening.

Subject: Re: really a message from keith...
Hi,
As a past administrator all I can suggest is:
i) attachments are actually against list policy - people should not be
sending them (this used to be noted in a 'welcome note' new members got but
I'm not sure the jiscmail system allows for that anymore).
ii) Keith's machine is probably infected - a 'spoof attack' or id theft
would not necessarily send to people/lists on his own email lists as we have
all seen
iii) the listing of who are the current 'maintainers' and their email
addresses may well be out-of-date
iv) balancing ease of communication and the annoyance of spam, bounced
emails (only the sender gets these anyway - they are more a function of the
recipient systems rather than the list), etc. is not always straightforward
v) some of the things requested may not be possible given the list software.
Regards
niall johnson

What used to be the positive spin about city life - the speed, the noise,=

Subject: University restructuring
The university where I work is currently 'debating' restructuring, and the
prevalent wisdom is that departments should be merged into schools (these
are described as more efficient administrative units). For geography, the
suggested merger is with archaeology. I would be really interested in
hearing from people who have experienced this form of restructuring,
particularly in relation to the impacts of mergers on individual
disciplines.
Thanks,
Mary
