Any chance of there being a newsgroup format made available, so I can skip past all the philosophy, religion, politics and other non NOG messages? Brian "Sonic" Whalen Success = Preparation + Opportunity
The thread based index at: http://www.cctec.com/maillists/nanog/index.html is reasonable... I wouldn't consider gatewaying nanog into usenet land (even one way) to be the world most constructive exercise... joelja On Sat, 27 Oct 2001, Brian Whalen wrote:

All web based crap that can't deal with killfiles, ignore threads, etc, etc, etc.

Huh? Nobody's talking about that. I think the suggestion was to expose NANOG as a news.group on its own news server, like so many other high volume mailing lists have done. Completely different things.

I've rarely seen a .sig that matched the body of a mail so well.

I do this locally, privately, in a non-feedable manner, with inn and cistron-m2n( ftp://ftp.cistron.nl/pub/people/miquels/software/ ). I've gone to this for all of my high volume mailling lists. Another route is to read mail in gnus, with fancy splitting. Chris
