Re: Become a newsgroup



     
     I believe that a newsgroup is not the answer.
     
        1) Not everyone has access to news groups.
        
        2) NETNEWS is completely unmoderated. 
           Any Jerk can Highjack a newsgroup. Some do it just for fun.
           There are guys that make bets on how many Rush Limbaugh
           flamewars they can keep going at once.
     
        3) Netnews delivery is not as timely List delivery.
     
        4) Read the Rialto for a month.
     
     YMMV,
     
Luther

The real answer when a mailing list becomes this active is to become a 
newsgroup.  This amount of activity will be taxing the server, and costs will 
go up. 
     
Or, get a list server that has digest capability. (Or have I missed that, 
pitching away 50 messages a day unread?)
