[Mesorah] mis-accentuation

[Mandel, Seth]

Thank you.

I hope it does not disturb the Shabbos for those who hoped to get clear answers.  The more we find the oldest sources, the more we realize how much we do not know.


Rabbi Dr. Seth Mandel

: R. Micha, I am attaching it.. I know that the software for Mesorah
: and the other lists will strip off attachments, but I don't know how
: to make it available to everyone.

That's only the text digests, which is the norm for Avodah and Areivim.
Everyone here is in single-email mode, since we rarely get the traffic
that would warrant defaulting to digests.

So, people should have gotten the attachment. I did. I do not know
why Michael did not.

That said, given what you wrote, they may not have checked. So, I saved
it in Avodah's "faxes" folder (the name made sense in 1998!) at
