I generally *only* use mailing lists and I do not find them a problem at all. What is it that you find user unfriendly about a mailing list? I do use various forums but never on a regular basis. I find web based access cumbersome. It would be absolutely essential - for me - that a forum had a good facility to receive and send email. There are very few of these I think. A notable type that I do use regularly is yahoogroups - they are both web based and also email based, and work well (on email anyway). Yahoo took the facilty over from the earlier egroups some years ago. -- alan cocks Kubuntu user#10391 -- ubuntu-uk@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-uk https://wiki.kubuntu.org/UKTeam/
