It definately lags (and you have to rememer to reply via email instead of replying directly to the newsgroup -- posts to the newgroup stopped being forwarded to the list a year or two back), but basically the reason I use it is it puts everything in a neatly searchable database. Which can be pretty cool if you've got it on your laptop somewhere and need to look something up. :) Course with the cf-talk archives being so spiffy these days it's really only a plus if you're somewhere without 'net access. --min ______________________________________________________________________ Get the mailserver that powers this list at http://www.coolfusion.com FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists
