Yes, it definitely *is* possible. I am the moderator/listman for `freebsd-doc-el', which is currently hosted in the Mailman installation of lists.linux.gr: http://lists.hellug.gr/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-doc-el Right now the list is not open for posting by non-subscribers, so we use this as a crude `antispam' filter. If the load starts becoming too much for me to handle, I will have to find another way to filter messages :) _______________________________________________ freebsd-advocacy@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-advocacy To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
