forward newsgroup messages to mailing lists
Hi all
My actual problem is to forward the messages that appear in news groups
http://groups.google.com/group/cornell.marketplace/
http://groups.google.com/group/ithaca.marketplace/
http://groups.google.com/group/ithaca.general/
etc., to a mailing list http://groups.google.com/group/cornell-bazaar .
Upon searching google I found that, I need a news2mail program which is
available in newsgate package for Debian. But the documentation is very
tough to understand for me.
So my question is are there some kind of HOWTOs which explain stuff more
clearly as to how to do this? Is there a better approach for this
problem than news2mail?
The cornell-bazaar mailing list is a moderated mailing list where as the
news groups are unmoderated. Will that present any particular problems?
Do I need to have a machine up and running 24/7 for news2mail to work
properly or is it OK if the machine switches off once in a while. What
happens to the messages that are posted to news groups when this machine
is switched off?
Any ideas and pointers to documentation (hopefully comprehensible) are
welcome.
thanks
raju
