* This is the modus mailing list *
All I know is whatever system you go to, make an OFF-TOPIC section where all
the extra BS (that clutters my mail and throws my message searches off) can
go and be ignored by those of us who don't want to talk about Wireless and
god knows what.
There is nothing better than searching the VOP Radius list for "PPPoE",
expecting to find messages having to do with VOP Radius and getting "I'm
thinking of taking two dixie cups and some fishing string and plugging that
into a donkey's ass, then have it run the data across town to the customer
.... oh, and I want them to authenticate via PPPoE".
My vote would be forum software with the ability to get an almost-immediate
email from the software when a new post is created to a subscribed forum.
