I does appear that the Google groups can be used in the same way that Yahoo groups do. You can subscribe and control using the old-fashioned mail addresses. A blank message To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] does get processed. I discovered that ,when I went to sign up that way, Google already had my account set up. I donno who did that. No service agreement to sign. No divulging of personal information that wouldn't be cataloged by Google anyway. No requirement for a gmail address. Perhaps not but they always have the IP or Ethernet address of the computer, Mac or not, that they send info too. All Ethernet devices have a unique address and don't be naive and believe that the NSA et. al. doesn't record your every move on the internet whether it be web, email or whatever. Recently the government subpoenaed google, yahoo, AOL and MSN for all search query info in the name of prohibiting child pornography. Only google balked.

Re: Moving to Google Groups
I don't like the move to google groups as it makes one have to go to the groups, many of which my Public Library blocks (no rhyme or reason as to whats blocked).

Re: Moving to Google Groups
Steve (and others), You don't have to use the web to join Google Groups. I just copied the following from the Groups website: - Can I subscribe to a Google Group via email? Yes, you can both subscribe to and unsubscribe from a Google Group via email. To subscribe, send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For example, if the group you wanted to join a group called google-friends, you'd send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] If you'd like to unsubscribe from a group via email, send an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For example, if you wanted to leave google-friends, you'd send an email to google-friends-unsubscribe @ googlegroups.com - So, in this case the SUBSCRIBE address will be: [EMAIL PROTECTED] You will then get regular messages at your email address.

Re: Moving to Google Groups
I'm sure there's a lot of call for a list devoted to 680x0-powered Mac minis and for users of that peculiar hybrid, the Intel 680x0 processor. (That's the model that ran System 6.1, right?)
