My point is that, as there is about to be an entire hierarchy devoted to railroad newsgroups, it would make good sense for the RAILROAD mailing list to be represented by a gated newsgroup in that hierarchy. >Lastly, perhaps in clarification, I would like the postings to be sent to >RAILROAD from the newsgroup BEFORE they are sent to the group (RAILROAD >should send them to the gateway/newsgroup), but failing that, a straight >bi-directional gateway is the best. I think what you want is a bi-directional gateway involving a standard *moderated* newsgroup in which the "moderator" address is the mailing list. The mailing list can then be moderated or not, as you like, and you will retain full control, as though the pair were just a simple mailing list without a newsgroup attached. -- Una Smith una.smith@yale.edu Department of Biology, Yale University, New Haven, CT 06520-8104 USA
