Sure it is :-)
However, many people do not want to receive a lot of messages, they
just want to ask their question. Additionally, within a newsgroup (as
an ADDITIONAL offer, NOT as a replacement for the lists), you get a
very good archive through deja.com, netnews.web.de, etc.

That's exactly what I thought! And the traffic in the German
mailreader group is enough to create a separate The Bat! group.

ACK!

Thanks for your feedback, Andrew!

Well, this one would be in German. However, feel free to create an
English one as well ;)
