Freeman Electronic Edition: Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
October 25, 2005
Some email providers are blocking these automatic e-mails
coming from us, thinking they are bulk 'spam' mail because they go
out in rapid sequence.
The email providers that we seem to be blocked from are Roadrunner
(.rr) and Hotmail. If you have one of these email providers, you
may wish to establish your email (for this feature) as a Yahoo
account, or a business account, to assure that the email gets
through. Yahoo appears to let all mail through, but MAY
automatically route it to a 'spam folder,' so you will want to
check for this.
Remember, you can always log-in to your account to check for a new
edition by going to www.freemanol.com
and clicking on the link. New editions are posted by 6:00 A.M.
The system doesn't seem to be accepting my last name or address. What's wrong?
The vast majority of users are able to easily sign up and use the system. A small percentage of addresses might cause trouble due to their length, or there might be a slight spelling error in our system that keeps track of your subscription. If you have trouble, just send an email to webmaster@conleynet.com. Please include the home address and name your paper is delivered to, and we will work to resolve the issue quickly to assure that your E-Edition works correctly.
How much does the E-Edition cost and how do I get it?
You have two choices:
1.) Sign up for The Freeman in print for as little as $8.95/month,
and your Electronic Edition is included in that price.
2.) You can also choose to sign up for the E-Edition ONLY for
$6.95/month.

What is the difference between 'newspaper view' and 'quick
view' when I'm viewing an article from the E-Edition?
When you click on an article to expand it, it will normally
expand in 'quick view' mode. This downloads faster, and creates
HTML text from the text in the original article. In some cases,
however, story graphics and tables will not translate accurately
into this format. In this case, first open the story, then select
'newspaper view' from the top 'view' menu. Now you will get a
version of the story that will appear as a graphic picture, which
will look exactly like the version in the paper, including all
graphics.
If you have a high-speed connection, you may enjoy using
'newspaper view' more frequently, as it tends to preserve the 'look
and feel' of the newspaper article more accurately. You can switch
back and forth between modes at any time you like by selecting
under the 'view' menu.
