Ideal thing is to create b...@gmail.com which are exclusively for lists(No address book entries in them) and link it with f...@gmail.com( Personal with contacts). GMail gives you option of both sending and receiving in foo ID itself.(Any mail with IMAP/forwarding support for that matter i guess) So even if the person is happy to share password of personal ID to xyz.com for what-so-ever, lists dont get spammed. -- Regards Srikanth.L [Twitter] http://twitter.com/logic _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, email ilugc-requ...@ae.iitm.ac.in with "unsubscribe <password> <address>" in the subject or body of the message. http://www.ae.iitm.ac.in/mailman/listinfo/ilugc
