Yes I have just been emailed by another list-serviod. They seem to have the all the shortcomings of the GoogleGrouper. Can't quote. can't snip sigs, can't keep the conversion on the newsgroup, ...

Yes, most ISP have dropped NNTP, but there are still free newsservers out there including this one provided by mozilla. Since they are already using a application that included a news client then why not just subscribed to the newsgroup *directly* and avoid confusing it with their email?

It would help solve all these cross-posting, filtering, replying, quoting, HTML format (verboten), attachment (verboten), questions...

Additionally you can then take advantage of newsgroup enhancement extension Mnenhy.
