With no faculty at OSU supporting us, our problems have not been solved and we are moving the list to Yale. Yale has looked into the matter and has assured me that they can configure the list in a way such that mail with different addresses (which is what happens when you send a mail to the list and the list sends it out using your name as the sender, but with KineJapan as the real sender and the return address) do not result in mass spam rejections (which is what happened—all of you with gmail, yahoo, etc. etc. rejected KineJapan mail and many were automatically removed from the list). The only thing holding up the switchover is transferring the archives from the OSU site to Yale. Unfortunately, OSU has again not been cooperative, but we are working on it.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">By the way, if any of you have been keeping all of your KineJapan mail in a separate folder, please contact me off list.</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Aaron Gerow</div><div class="">KineJapan co-owner</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><div><blockquote type="cite" class=""><div class="">2018/01/15 午後9:15、Japanese Cinema Discussion Forum via KineJapan <<a href="mailto:kinejapan@lists.osu.edu" class="">kinejapan@lists.osu.edu</a>> のメール：</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><div class=""><div id="divtagdefaultwrapper" dir="ltr" style="font-style: normal;
