discuss: Thread: Serial-Programming-HOWTO was [Re: automatic submission? Serial Programming ...]

Greetings David,

>OK.

>>I've put his files on my website and they get high traffic.  They

>>imbedded devices. I'm not taking over maintenance of these files 
>>and am not submitting them in my own name.  We will then have 2 
>>howtos of the same name except I'll ask to add "-old" to the old 
>>one which has some important info not in the newer how-to (but 
>>overall, the newer one is better).  The author told me in an email

LDP-relevant submission points:
-------------------------------
Thank you!  I have received the Serial-Programming-1.HOWTO that you 
mentioned.  This says that it is Part 1 of 2.  Do you have Part 2 of 
2, also?  If you can send me Part 2, then I'll add it to the 
repository.


Half-duplex communication problem: 
----------------------------------
Unfortunately, I'm replying on the discuss list because I am unable 
to email you directly.  Since I have been sending to the discuss 
list and copying your email address, I have been receiving bounces 
sent to your lafn.org address.  Last month, I followed the 
instructions [0], contacting ####@####.#### when the 
lafn.org MX (108.92.93.122) refused to accept mail from 
64.22.109.0/24 (my MTA's prefix).  I heard nothing in reply and the 
status is unchanged.

Until that little hitch is repaired, I'll not be able to email you 
privately.  Do you have an alternate mechanism for communication 
with the Los Angeles Free-Net mail administrators?

Best regards,

-Martin
