Hi,
I am a newcomer who asked a first question here at Tutor. Soon I received a very good answer from a tutor and put an effort to understand it. After that I wrote a reply with a thank you and a follow-up question, only to discover that I don’t see a way to send it. I need to say I did not write to maillist forums before, only to forums with Post button right there:). I reread *tutor-**bounces* auto-response, then did some googling and realized that I may need to subscribe. So I did on Sunday May 22, and the webpage said: “*Your subscription request has been received, and will soon be acted upon. Depending on the configuration of this mailing list, your subscription request may have to be first confirmed by you via email, or approved by the list moderator. If confirmation is required, you will soon get a confirmation email which contains further instructions.*” Main question: Should I wait more or I am missing something I need to do at my end? My purpose is to post a reply in a particular subject I initiated. Please note that I did not receive anything from a tutor in my email other than *tutor-bounces* auto-response. I use Gmail. Other organizational questions: - - May I attach a file to a message? Some Python libraries are quite big (50 pages in my case), however it may be not difficult for an expert to answer a question if he/she has a full library. At the same time, it seems inconsiderate and impractical to paste 50 pages into a message. - - Can I paste not in plain text – using fonts etc? - - May I ask a follow-up question in the same thread, or should I start a new one? - - Is this ok to post a message that contains thank you only, or these messages have to be deleted by moderators (like on stackoverflow.com?) I believe first I was able to see a tutor’s response on external website: https://code.activestate.com/lists/python-tutor/107992/ - and much later on mail.python.org. Is this persistent behaviour? Possibly, all this is answered in a document somewhere? Thank you for your time. _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - Tutor@python.org To unsubscribe or change subscription options: https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
