mailing list question/problem

[-- Attachment #1.1: Type: text/plain, Size: 544 bytes --]

Hello all,

i´m new to the mailing list. i posted a few questions on the mailing list for a while but got never an answer. The last thing i posted was in the [NTG-context] BibTeX/Publications thread:

http://archive.contextgarden.net/message/20091115.194137.4395932d.en.html

it seems that i make something wrong with posting because i get always ignored (see following discussion on in the mail...).

Please can somebody write back only that i can by certain that my messages become properly posted -  thanks.

best regards
Bernhard

Yes, your messages are posted correctly. I think you got no reply to  
your first question because there was no minimal example (your code  
referred to a bibtex file that wasn't included). But this list is  
sometimes a bit busy, so things just get lost in the excitement of it  
all. Don't feel embarrassed to post your question again.

I would like to add that messages without example file are much more
likely to get 'lost'. I myself do not even look at questions on the list
that require me to reverse engineer the input, and I suspect the same is
true for many of the regular posters.

Best wishes,
Taco

It's ok here -- I have seen your emails too.
I usually try to post something like this

test.tex fails in mkiv (or mkii, or both)
with ..... (relevant errors msgs, usually take from test.log)
on ... (machine, eventually minimals or TeXlive specs.)

%%test.tex
\starttext
%
% My code here
%
\stoptext

test.tex should be a "cut-and-paste" text , ie not very long.
