[BLU/Officers] [Fwd: Re: Pinch-Hitter needed to moderate WIND list next weekend]



Has the moderator (not administrator) password for the WIND list changed in the last year or so? 
Robert is having trouble logging in as moderator.

The password I gave him was animal-related.

All right, I typed the message multiple times (just in case I made a typo) and then cut-and-pasted
it (without the quotes of course).? The result was a repeated authentication failure message.? It
has been my experience with multiple password failures that many authenticated sites "freeze"
(i.e. prevent login) on some number of failures.
?
It is possible that the url for the list admin has changed since I last logged onto it?

You have to give me a lot more information than "didn't work" and how
the list is now screwed up if you want me to help.
