Re: Link between newsgroup linux.debian.user and the debian user mailing list ?

I want to know it there is any link between the linux.debian.user newsgroup and the debian user mailing list. It seems to be the same messages on both. Am I right or do some people cross post in both ? I ask this stupid question because I discovered Debian, the usenet groups and this mailing list at the same time, and, because of the amount of messages, can I unsubscribe the list without loosing contact ? Congratulations to all debian maintainers, developers, coordinators, etc ... Debian is simply the best distro I've ever seen (after testing 6 distribs, I switched to debian). Bravo guys ! -- Yves Dessertine [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi Yves- It's not a stupid question. Here's the deal: everything you post via the mailing-list gets posted to the news server. The other way around is not so. That is, you might post via news, but it won't show on the list. At least, that's what happens with the d-u-portuguese list. SO, when I didn't know this, I wouldn't get an answer becasue it was posted via news. HTH. BR. Henry

The problem is : When I reply to a message ni newsgroups, the person who send the original msg cannot see it if he/she doesn't read the newsgroups. Second question : Can I - Unsubscribe this mailing list (too much mail in my mbox). - Continue reading the messages vie the newsservers - Answer reply to message in THIS mailing list WITHOUT BEEING SUBSCRIBED ?

Of course, should he screw up and cause a mail loop, the entire news gateway will most probably be forcibly removed from the Debian MLs, and blacklisted. There is very, very little tolerance for misconfigured news gateway AFAIK (due to previous episodes of breakage). - Answer reply to message in THIS mailing list WITHOUT BEEING SUBSCRIBED ?
