[Rhodes22-list] Nabble, Rummy's houseboat, and posting files

[Robert Skinner]

NABBLE:

Thanks, Ed - that sounds like a good idea.  
However, I don't see any way to locate 
specific attachments - pictures or PDFs - 
for categorization or quick indexed 
retrieval.  

It appears that the subject line is the 
only way to search.  I hope I'm wrong, 
and that you can enlighten me on a way 
to search/retrieve by attached file name.

Otherwise, to make Nabble more valuable,
wi would have to put some sort of tag on 
the subject line to indicate that a file 
is attached.

RUMMY

And to Rummy - what a cool structure!
Guess you need a power boat to tow it 
around, or is it anchored?
What did you use for flotation?

POSTING

As the list is transitioned to a new host, 
is it possible that a file sharing facility 
be included with user-initiated and named 
folders where files (photos, DOCs, PDFs, 
etc.) could be uploaded, as can be done 
with a Yahoo email group?

With storage costs dropping, it does not 
seem as if that would be a problem.  The 
bandwith/transmission overhead would not 
be appreciably changed from the current 
load.  It looks as if security would be 
the long pole, but that is also an issue 
with other aspects of the list.  What do 
you say, John?
