How would setting a list to post to newsgroup, and mailing list cause problems? And what did you mean about different climates? I can understand that sometimes people post slightly different on news groups, but I've been on several news groups where they cross-post to mailing lists as well. When I say cross-post, I don't mean two individual addresses specified, I mean the mailing list software/news server software passing the messages between each other, no end user interaction on that part. All I said was it was worth a look into if there was enough interest. I'm in the process of setting up a news server for the company I work for anyway, so checking it out at the same time wouldn't be much hassle. -- Jonathan Angliss ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) ________________________________________________________ Current Ver: 1.60m FAQ : http://faq.thebat.dutaint.com Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Bug Reports: https://bt.ritlabs.com
