Yo ppl, it's not hard to archive a closed list, most list software supports
archive directly. Sheesh! You make it sound like it's the end of the world
for crying out loud. Give me a break!
No one should be allowed to post to ANY mail list that is NOT subscribed to
that list! all we need is for more idiot spammers to harvest the address and
spam ad infinitum. Then maybe you'll change your minds.
*sigh*
