Well, being that ianap, I don't really know how much work it would be - while I'm not suggesting it would be 'trivial' at all, it just seems to me like not so much for someone well versed in the necessary tools - 'seems' being the operative word there... ;) Like I said, it was just an idea, the thought being it is better to spend a bit more 'up-front', building an easy to use and comprehensive support 'System', to reduce the overhead of managing the support process (including lists) for the long run... Anyway, at a minimum, I would dearly love to see simple list specific pages for subscribing/unsubscribing. Mailman generates these out of the box, so its not like this should be a lot of work - unless mlmmj doesn't provide such pages? If not, then I think it would be worth it to make the move to mailman just for that. -- Best regards, Charles -- E-mail to [email protected] for instructions on how to unsubscribe List archives are available at http://www.documentfoundation.org/lists/discuss/ All messages you send to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
