I have seen setups where mail to a list gets posted to a newsgroup as well
However with a list this size that may not be a good idea (the list was
m68k-linux, which was fairly quiet, maybe 10-15 messages/day)
However that still leads to the problems where people don't want to
subscribe to both services, for whatever reasons... personally I don't
mind what happens, but as I am one of the lucky few who is stuck with
ancient software, and the College shut off the usenet feeds for us (have
to use deja.com, which I hate)... I'd rather it stayed with majordomo.
Perl rocks, anyway...
