Just trying to understand better: what is the reason you'd not want to sign
in (once) to a web forum, to gain access to the list? Is it because of
having to create "yet another username and password"? Or privacy concerns?
Since almost everything on the internet these days requires a login, I
don't understand the issue (especially when there's not a corporation
behind it), but I would like to.

Thanks,
Glen.

&gt; Hi,<br>
&gt; <br>
&gt; not sure if this is possible at all, but to turn that into positive: i=
t has advantages to post via the web interface: you can easily format code,=
 address other users, edit mistakes etc.<br>
Thanks Johannes, thanks Daniel for your answers!<br>
<br>
I am afraid but;<br>
If I have to pick an email address to send to depending on the topic I<br>
will refrain to post to the forum in mailing list mode. This is no<br>
mailing list mode but a second class ripoff.<br>
<br>
If I have to sign up on a web forum to post a new topic I will not do<br>
so.<br>
<br>
So, could we keep the mailing list alive then?<br>
<br>
best, P<br>
