http://trinity-users.pearsoncomputing.net/?0::15109
and
http://trinity-users.pearsoncomputing.net/?0::15152
are the only two messages of the five listed for the "Can I practice with you?"
thread on the list
archive that do not produce the following:
[quote]Cannot decode string with wide characters at
/usr/lib/powerpc64le-linux-gnu/perl/5.24/Encode.pm line 202.
For help, please send mail to the webmaster (kb9vqf(a)pearsoncomputing.net), giving this
error
message and the time and date of the error.[/quote]
Is the list archive producing this message just for my IP?
The first of those that don't is Dan's sent 14:06:08 -0700. The 9 March starter
spam is pure
forgery. It's the first and only spam with my name & sender address I can recall
seeing come
through the list. If more is being sent, it must be being trapped by Earthlink's own
filters before
it gets to my account. The archive does not permit by author listings that might allow me
to look
and see how many forgeries have made the list.
AFAICT, I'm being victimized by false positive filtering as well as forgeries.
It's become quite
troublesome lately. I have yet to figure out what to do about it, only just having
realized how bad
it has become. Most of my email is to/from mailing lists, and I have seen little evidence
of
trouble with lists. Earthlink via BrightHouse/Spectrum has been my provider nearly 12
years,
started when Time Warner/BrightHouse booted Internet Junction, my first and theretofore
broadband
provider, off the available alternatives on its cable system, the only broadband option
where I am.
deloptes did email to me about spamming here "from me" privately, a month ago,
but nothing came of it.
Contacting Tim via direct email for me has historically been impossible. Resolving trouble
in the
past has been done via a borrowed email account using webmail to work around the false
positives or
filtering or outright domain blocking.
