For once I'm not getting any messages sent through, well not at the
moment anyway. That comment about free listserving explains a lot
though! I have often wondered why LEM doesn't move to a better service
or backend software - being free does have a certain attraction! I
should imagine the key thing is the cost of the bandwidth as some of
these lists are pretty busy. As you say, Yahoo is not a nice service,
although the few lists I am on don't actually cause me any problems at
all.
