Yes, that's right... email. :) And the product we're dealing with here is... Yep, right again... email. We ran into this on another project I was following and they managed to find some means of cross feeding the 2 mechanisms. All the email got fed to the forums, and the forum posts got fed to the mailing list. I'm not sure how they managed it, or even what flavor of the forum and mailing list packages they were using but is seemed to work out well. Everybody got to handle things in which ever way they preferred. I guess I should do some digging and see if there is something that might be transportable to this project. later... ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Crystal Reports - New Free Runtime and 30 Day Trial Check out the new simplified licensing option that enables unlimited royalty-free distribution of the report engine for externally facing server and web deployment. http://p.sf.net/sfu/businessobjects _______________________________________________ Assp-user mailing list [email protected] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/assp-user
