Web4Ren Forum (W4RF): Many sorts of information of potential relevance to those interested in Renaissance Intellectual History

News: 2022-12-27: Somtime in January or February 2023 this forum will go into hibernation ("Maintenance mode"). Maybe the yet to be found successor to Thomas Ricklin, or my own successor (also yet to be found) will reactivate the forum sometime in the future. (hck)

Dear members of Web4Ren Forum (W4RF),
 
somebody (not a member of W4RF) somehow succeeded to take a hold of the email-sending capabilities of W4RF and tried to use that hold (half successfully) to send SPAM.
 
To prevent that this is done again (which would result in our server - including W4RF -  being blocked completely from outside access) I will have to turn off the email-sending capabilities of W4RF more or less at once (at least until I have understood how the break in occurred and how to close the hole used).
 
So you won't receive email notifications for updates of threads and/or sections "watched" by you from now on to some time in a perhaps rather remote future. Sorry about that! I suggest that you use W4RF's RSS-feeds instead for the near and middle future.
 
Sorry about all that!!!
 
Please accept my apologies!
 
   Best wishes, cordial greetings
 
Heinrich (C. Kuhn)

Also: If you try to send a topic from W4RF to somebody using W4RF's built-in email capabilities: such a mail will not be sent. W4RF's email sending capabilities have been cut. Had to. Sorry!
