I'm not subscribed to any of the Debian mailing lists; I participate in them via the NNTP gateway at Gmane. This lets me treat the lists like a Usenet newsgroup: the entire archive at Gmane is immediately available, and I can filter the messages based on the header of each message, before I even download or use local storage for any of the messages themselves. I can also post to each group, and my messages are sent to the mailing list with my From field in the header. Point your news reader (such as Icedove, or GNUS, or slrn) at <URL:nntp://news.gmane.org/gmane.linux.debian.devel.general/> for the debian-devel mailing list NNTP gateway. You can also instruct your newsreader to get (via NNTP) the entire set of groups available from the news.gmane.org server, which includes gateways to mailing lists for a great many free software projects. -- \ "The face of a child can say it all, especially the mouth part | `\ of the face." -- Jack Handey | _o__) | Ben Finney -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
