Degradation of the list

Sorry if it appears this way to you.  I would strongly invite you to  
use this list to discuss features, problems, and workarounds for  
OmniWeb, and to ignore any questions posted by users new to OmniWeb.

But yes, you do have a point:

Sounds reasonable to me.  I've been meaning to update the pages to  
explain Terminal to users anyway, and as you suggest I'll go ahead  
and change the link to the mailing list to point at our tech support  
address instead.

I'll also be switching over this mailing list to be a members-only  
list, so that people must be subscribed to the list to be able to  
post to it (unless they have moderator approval), which if nothing  
else should eliminate the remaining spam that makes it through our  
filters.

Thanks for the feedback,
