Ok -- why do you want a usenet ng to replace the mail list? Reasons I don't think we should: - more folks around the world get email than usenet - it is simpler to use - the list has a pretty good a

I don't think that the Triumphs list is "broke." However, I do think that the concept of e-mail lists is outdated; they hearken from a time when it was common for people to have access to Internet ma

The point being that most people use a POP3 server of some sort. Headers are lower overhead. I don't think it's an issue for most folks, but still.... As I mentioned. Again, I'm not in disagreement.
