Tnx Russell for the input. I am afraid I do not know how RSS feeds work but from your discription it seems to be a kind of 'group' facility ie GoogleGroups. What I DO NOT want is a mail to be sent to me each time there is a new message that requires me to visit the site, log-in, read the msg, reply and logoff ie I would like each message to come to me so that I can answer it/store it for later knowledge or discard it into my personal trash bin with no effect on the archive. Email works for me and I am only at Thunderbird 1.5. I have emailed the webmaster at VMWare and asked him/her to establish a free mailing list, like this excellent one at opensuse, for VMWare Server.
