You can't just send an e-mail to listn...@groups.google.com? No, the web UI is not the only way. Like I said, for the JStrack list, and a homebrew club list before that (which died, as most would prefer to just enter everyone's e-mail rather than send to a list...don't ask) has/had the web UI turned off---the ONLY way being the e-mail option (to listn...@groups.google.com). > I think the Yahoo list server can be used by anybody (I guess you have > to sign up for a Yahoo account, to do admin stuff).
