Same here. I also have "live" archives in that the web archives are
updated as messages appear. Many of my list lurkers unsubscribed when
they became available saying they would prefer to read via the web.
I'd like to let web users post, but I know that the troll factor
(nearly non-existant now) would become a recurring problem. This I
know because a hearty proportion of my webmaster mail is such
email. Your average troll isn't going to bother requesting dailing
email (and then possibly unsubscribing) just to post. A few
advertisers have done so in the past, but I can't recall any in the
last 4 months. I get about 2 pieces of troll email a day to
webmaster. Better there than to the list.
Certainly, any user now can request posting priveleges without being
on the email list (I have 2 like that), but they still have to email
to post.
