The  software that runs Mantovano is old and far from bullet-proof. A
possible  solution is to move the list to a free mailing list service
such as Google  Groups. This would simplify my job, certainly!

The main disadvantage is  that everyone who wants to continue receiving
messages would need to  register with Google Groups. It's easy (and
free), but it is an additional  step. Right now, it's extremely easy to
join the discussion -- and also  easy to send spam. I do what I can
behind the scenes, but some kinds of  spam I can't intercept.

What are your  thoughts?



I use google for other groups and find that it works well and is very  simple 
to use
