Quick LWN updateQuick LWN updatePosted Mar 27, 2003 16:57 UTC (Thu) by dvainsencher (guest, #4143)Parent article: Quick LWN update Hmm, this made me think - I got a 12 month subscription, which is long enough I'll probably forget to renew when the time comes. But not if you send me an email reminder a couple of months before the time comes... (obviously, this is not urgent :-)) Daniel

Email reminders Posted Mar 27, 2003 17:01 UTC (Thu) by corbet (editor, #1) [Link] The site does currently send out a note when the subscription actually expires - that actually gives you a few weeks to fix things up. I've pondered some sort of earlier notice, but I really don't want to send out too much email...For what it's worth, an amazing amount of the subscription mail we do send bounces; a lot of people don't give us working email addresses when they set up their accounts.

That's no surprise, given how much such info is unfortunately abused in most cases. I'd like to commend LWN for being a pleasant exception to that.. I did use a valid address, and it's stayed pleasantly spam-free. (I did at one point have to change it, but that was due to a mailing list I was on being harvested, unfortunately.)
