Do you know which mailing list manager we were using on the old site? Unless someone has a better suggestion, I'm going to go and install mailman. It will have to wait until after Xmas, though.

Do you have problems, concerns or recommendations about the technical side of the Phoenix? Air them here. Compliments also welcome.
Tom, I'm pretty sure we had mailman at the other site.
Nillytown is missing post 107.
I've noticed a lot of skipped numbers in threads recently. Is that just a quirk of the new system or are posts actually getting lost?
Oops, didn't need to be said twice. But while I'm here, I just want to express appreciation to ita and the BBaBBettes for all their hard work on the seamless move of the board.
Huh.
For the second time, or the third, if you count the missing post 1 in Spoilers, a thread has told me there are two new, when there's just the one.
This happened with the first post in Beep Me post move, and again in Minearverse just now.
Huh. Okay. THere have been a number of times recently that I have checked my message center page, seen that a thread has two new messages, and when I clicked on that thread to read them, only found one new message.
I just had this happen in Minearverse, and when I looked close, a post number was skipped.
So, the message center page seems to be counting by post numbers, rather than actual new posts, OR posts are getting eaten, but the posters making them aren't saying anything about it.
(x-posty with my favoritest Pleiades in the whole wide world)
It seems to me that the skipped post is happening in the first post in each thread that has been posted after the move.
I think sj is on to something. The skipped post in Nillytown was between the last post on the old server and the first one on the new.
