Hi, I think that any ideas that decrease the overall of the eMails in the list should be welcome. Maybe dividing the list into two list, one that solves problems and one for the interesting staff, I'm not saying here that we have to separate between newbies and gurus, no, the contrary, everybody was a newbie at the beginning... I am talking about separating the list into different topics of conversation. Think about it...

Well, I have an idea: why don't we create a virtual HTTP newsgroup that will mirror the articles sent to the list? That is, any message that is sent to the list will also appear at the web page, and one can also use the web page to send E-mail messages to the list (and eventually to itself). That way people who can't afford receiving a lot of message will be happy, but we can still have a mailing list. Does anybody know of a HTTP newsgroup engine that supports this kind of interaction?
