I manage some lists with The Bat and ADR, Advanced Direct Remailer. I don't know of anything better for my uses, but that's just me. http://www.mailutilities.com/adr/ I use it as my own personal, robust, SMTP server. I can write plugins for outgoing mail, and manage complex mailing lists. It can get addresses from flat files, databases, or anywhere. It can send mails individually to people on a mailing list, they don't have to see a list of all the other recipients. Configuration is simple and un-server-like. Also, there is another one, whose name I would remember if I heard it. If you are indeed interested in ADR and similar, I can find it for you. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] ________________________________________________ Current version is 2.02.3 CE | "Using TBUDL" information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html
