- Hija....
- I simply went for the big one and setup a listserv, even though I only mail to
- about 10 people. It took me about 2 hours to get it running, and I get what
- is a rather professional result.
-
- I use listserv5.5, the latest version. Use archie and get yourself a copy if
- interested. I'd be happy to help if you need it.
