Dear all,

I love CCP4BB, but I hate going on holidays because when I come back my
Inbox is usually full with CCP4BB messages.

The way out of this misery would be to have a mailing list archive which
is presented such that it can be read with a newsreader.

news.gmane.org offers this service. For all those who don't know this:
it lets you read mailing lists without having subscribed to them.
Currently there are almost 14.000 mailing lists hosted by gmane.org .
To read one of this, you use your email client (e.g. thunderbird),
- open an new "account" in the file menu
- choose "newsgroup account"
- enter the information about yourself
- enter news.gmane.org as newsgroups server
- later choose the mailinglists/newsgroups you want to "subscribe" to
- read these in your email client as usual

One can also post messages, but that needs an additional step, with confirmation emails going back and forth.

May I suggest that the people who run the CCP4BB please consider this, and fill out the form at http://gmane.org/subscribe.php ?

thank you,

Kay
