[...] > When the mailing lists were started several years ago there was no > interest in having a web based mailing list. I have never made the > archives accessible on the web on the principle that the mailing list > subscribers know that it is not publicly archived. But how do you avoid getting the same questions by new subscribers again and again? BTW: My problem has been solved by the "Patch for Not Modified bug" posted to this list. I could not find this patch on the web or somewhere else, so this information is not available for people subscribing now. It would be nice to have a link from the wwwoffle website to the mail archive at http://www.mail-archive.com/ > > Before I did make the lists available I would want to make sure that > the subscribers were happy with this change. The archives at mail-archive.com exist without your agreement? > > There are also some proactical problems. It would be easiest to have > a web-server that also runs the mailing list as well as providing the > searchable archive for example. Would it be a financial or a technical problem? [...] -- Andi
