"Nothing"? What are you talking about? Go to <http://mail.maclaunch.com/> and 
you get a page titled "Welcome to CommuniGate Pro, the mail.maclaunch.com 
Messaging Server!" This is the mail server's internal Web interface. Trust me, 
I used to run Stalker SIMS myself on my StarMax. Further, if you need more 
proof, use a tool like curl (console) or HTTP Werkzeug (GUI) and look at the 
page's HTML headers:

HTTP/1.0 200 OK
Date: Sun, 21 Nov 2004 18:23:58 GMT
Content-Length: 9185
Content-Type: text/html; charset="ISO-8859-1"
Server: CommuniGatePro/4.1.8

The Server string is for CommuniGate Pro -- the Web server runs inside of the 
mail daemon. The idea that this is nothing to do with CommuniGate is a pathetic 
attempt to fob me off and it insults and angers me. I am not as stupid as you 
think.


Then, on the page you have, under the heading of "Guests":

    * Mailing Lists
    * Directory
    * Mail to Postmaster 

Fortunately, Directory does not contain anything, but the mailing lists are all 
found here. These are NOT the ones that you tell us are our official lists, 
these are a totally separate set maintained by the mail server daemon. You 
complain that you lack space for lists? Well, do you think this is helping you 
any? These are not publicised either, so again, they're not helping any (except 
on the condition that the official lists are not spidered by Google et al, as 
these ones are). But the official ones are safe to be spidered pretty much, 
these are not. And oddly, mail-archive.com is spidered but the StarMax list on 
it does not seem to be.


For the record I first sent a mail to the postmaster at the given address 
(third link), but that achieved nothing -- does anyone even read that?
