Does a mailing list exist for . . .

Can you tell me whether a mailing list exists for people who maintain a
mailing list using the listserv package from Boston University?

Here's my specific problem:

Previously, the gateway (via the listserv package) from my mailing list
to bit.software.international worked fine.  However, after I converted
our system from nntp/C-News to INN, the gateway does not work anymore.
I must post everything manually to network news now.

Thanks for your assistance.

Jeff

unix-listserv@stormking.com, I believe.  Mail listserv@stormking.com
(soon to be listproc@stormking.com... long story).

Hmm.  Can't help you on that, but I've always done mail->news gateways
on unix with Rich Salz' newsgate, which works fine with INN, as well as
C-News.  I believe one of the INN FAQ postings gives a bit more detail
about configuring it.

(I'm mailing this response, but posting it also since others may be
interested as well).
