- hosting a mailing list
before everyone gets worried about the idea of membership in NCF,
perhaps they would be willing to allow starting a mail list that would
allow Non NCF members, or Non NCF addresses to participate.? (My NCF ID
is AA508 so I have been using the site for a while.)
- engaging with Linux-Ottawa participants in discussions to help NCF
select email software as Zimbra is going to become proprietary. NCF
would
prefer open source, but needs a solution well-suited to very non-tech
users.
ZIMBRA is what the NCF uses for their web mail service. it is not used
as an e-mail processing system. Many NCF users are not technical, and I
am sure some JUST use the web mail interface. for me it is a third
level backup when e-mail seems fuzzy
I imagine this item is knowing what packages they could run that would
give the users much the same access to their mail. without migrating to
a closed version of ZIMBRA. (with simmalar security and convenience
features.) the mail back-end and Spam filter at NCF is quite robust,
although it deliberately slows reception of mail to avoid fly by night spam.
