Once you get the emails from the official mailing list, posting a reply is straightforward. Do a reply-all for most messages, perhaps deleting some of the to or cc addresses depending on a specific message. Then trim the parts you're not responding to, and put your new remarks after the context you are responding to. It won't double-post. For new messages, simply address a new message to python-list@python.org Depending on your mail reader, you can see the messages in threads, except for all the people who bust up the threads. When you get to that point, post a new thread specifying your email program and OS, and somebody will probably volunteer to help you get it customized (though perhaps the actual discussion for that would be offline). For anybody else listening, the way I avoid seeing the google-groups double-post is to automatically delete any message that's got a cc to google-groups. That way I only get the OTHER copy of the message. -- DaveA -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
