I agree but reserve the option to change my mind.

Does anybody think we should keep all the old screenshots and photos that people uploaded? None of them are newer than 8 years old. If I don't hear from anyone I won't move them to groups.io but they would still be available until yahoo groups removes them. I don't think they are worth keeping. if you're not sure, you can always go to yahoo groups and look at them. I think you'll agree that they won't be of much benefit to us to keep them.


 

I could not see them anyway, because I joined the group with an email addy, not by getting a yahoo groups account, so my vote is to let them remain and die with yahoo.

One thing we can now do on groups.io is add screenshots, photos etc to our messages. I'm not limiting them however, storage on groups.io is limited so when we reach our max they will remove our oldest attachment(s) to make room for the next new one if needed. Just so you know. This storage limitation also applies to files etc that we upload.

My problem now is I am quite hard of hearing and using a phone fo me very difficult. My wife uses phone for me but she is illiterate regarding tech issues. People speak too fast and gals with high pitched voices escape me completely. Due aging and having broken both legs in last two years I am very limited to where I can go. Will soon give up driving completely.

I am not computer expert but have had to use them from late 60's for fourier transform NMR. I was a research chemist (retired now for 27 years). We were encouraged to learn Fortran. which i never did. Few years later at the Unjv where I was a professor took week course in machine language.
I learned Fortran IV one summer during medical school (1967).
Did some trivially simple programming using a paper-tape feed for a Varian computer when spending a summer at NASA (1969).
Got a Radio Shack TRS-80 Model III (1979).
Yes that is what my colleague bought. Radio shack was very early in getting desk top computers to the public. They somehow missed out over the years. There was a store near us now where I got small items, connectors etc. sorry to see these stores disappear.

To my knowledge yes. Has worked fine until Catalina. The issue is related to partitioning. Playing around with this has led only to my computer crashing. I have one partition volume of my external and time machine backs up to this without problem. So don¡¯t believe defective drive or cable.

Re: Creating an Outlook Rule for Macsupportcentral #Mail

 

Thanks, Dave. You got me headed in a new direction. Your suggestion didn't work however I noted that Outlooks "To:" line is always "[email protected]".

My new working rule is "Any recipient" contains "[email protected]".

Additionally, I changed my macsupportcentral preference to "Daily Journal". That, more than anything, will set things to how they were.

Cheers


Re: Creating an Outlook Rule for Macsupportcentral #Mail

Have your rule look for [macsupportcentral] (in brackets) in the subject of the message. That will work every time.

Hi, everyone.

I'm struggling with creating a rule that moves messages from this group into a MacSupport folder I created in Outlook. i have a long list of working rules but this group brings a challenge for Outlook.

Messages from the group arrive with two addresses: one from the poster and one from Sent by?[email protected]. Outlook is not seeing the second address so it fails.

Messages from users can have two forms: just the author's name, the author's name plus "via Groups,io". I can make a working rule for the second form using ""

Messages with just the author's name will require using that name since Outlook isn't seeing the Sent by address. Needless to say, creating a rule for every subscriber to the group is out of the question.

Kindly share your thoughts and suggestions.

Re: Creating an Outlook Rule for Macsupportcentral #Mail

 

Hi,

Even though I am not symptomatic with John`s maladies, I
would also prefer a daily digest, rather than numerous messages from those
techno wizards of whom I will always hold in high esteem, knowing
I will never qualify.

Btw, I am usually hesitant to upgrade my MacBook Air to the latest operating systems,
in this case "Catalina," without waiting a few months in case a few bugs pop up.

Is this somewhat prudent or unnecessary?

Rick, aka ballyrick.

?UR which i switched too from recommendations from some in this group has some features i like.? But finding it tends to limit sites i can visit. get SNAP
so switching back to Firefox.

I am not computer expert but have had to use them from late 60's for fourier transform NMR.? I was a research chemist (retired now for 27 years). We were encouraged? to learn Fortran. which i never did.? Few years later at the Unjv where I was a professor took week course in machine language.? Later in the mid 80's a fellow working for got his own desk top computer, a kit from Radio Shack.? Soon the organization got the senior people their own desk computer, IBM using MS/DOS.? The organization had their own e mail system and connections, thru telephone lines or cable to Europe, connection to Paris France where we could print our documents directly on their printers.? This was pre internet.? Later they bought another company which used Mac's which were so much better for graphics so we were allowed to switch.? Been using apple products since,? I have two sons well into computers and software,? One of them has written software for GE radar systems, avionics for Lockeed and Boeing and is now develping software for orion the new space vehicle.

The other uses computers to map human gene changes in various cancers to find approaches for therapy.? Can only use non apple hardware for this as no apple software availble for this.?
