Re: [OT] Mail & Web forums

[Brian McCallister]

I know of a ruby one that bridges mailing lists and nntp (ask about it 
on [EMAIL PROTECTED]), but not forum software. I have thought 
about writing one for a long time though (add in streaming them as 
categorizable rss/atom/??? feeds (category/thread/subthread for feed 
categorization uri a la blosxom) as well) but haven't had the proper 
motivation.

If you cannot find anything contact me and I'll help write one that 
does it =)

I'm looking for a system (preferably open source) that I can install 
on my own server, that'll allow me to set up a combined mailing 
list/web based forum, (much as we have now with ezmlm and gmane), 
i.e.messages can be sent by email or on a web page, messages can be 
received by email or viewed, threaded, on a web page. I can't use 
Gmane as these lists will be private.

Anyone able to give me pointers (replies off list are fine)? I've been 
looking for months and not found anything.

Sorry for the noise.
