Ok. My experience differs, but we've probably been reading different groups. "info-cvs" is the first mailing list/newsgroup I've encountered that gets so much spam, so I've been blaming it on the mailing list side. > and just too bloody much of a pain. "pain" in what way? Your newsreader is not as friendly as your mail reader? There are better ones out there! Netscape newsreader is pretty good; I prefer Emacs Gnus. > If info-cvs becomes news-only, I'll just bail on it. > > I've set up a redistributor for info-cvs which runs on my home > machine.

I'd like to see your list of filters, so I can add them to my Gnus setup. I'd rather rely on the news servers than your mail server. -- -- Stephe _______________________________________________ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
