bad. how do you answer to posts? ,-) for me RSS is not a solution for participating in a mailinglist. if you want to have read only access, it may be an alternative... so you still need the mails ;-) > I personally would very much favour this approach for the following > reasons: > - My inbox remains emptier/smaller <ironic> yes, you're right, we've got about 654'465'108 mails a year on this mailinglist ;-) makes sense ,-) </ironic> > - No problems with auto replys which flood the whole list well, as i said: mail will remain, so auto reply's will remain ... > - Only headers get downloaded automatically.

Google, for > example, recommends this software on the server side: > http://jmason.org/software/scripts/mailman-archive-to-rss.txt i think you're gladly invited to provide an RSS feed for those people which cannot live without it ;-) cheers -steven _______________________________________________ swinog mailing list swinog@lists.swinog.ch http://lists.swinog.ch/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/swinog
