hi, just fyi, i investigated this and you can join any publicly readable group by sending an email to the "-subscribe" address. you do not need a google login for this and, as far as i can tell, it then operates for you like a normal mailing list. for example, to subscribe to the group foo, you would send an email to foo-subscr...@googlegroups.com. to unsubscribe, use foo- unsubscr...@googlegroups.com. this isn't exactly well-publicised, but i tested it and it does work. andrew -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
