Some messages ago, lear@turbo.bio.net was putting some ideas
for a list-server program. Well, RNA 2.0 can be used as a 
list-server with little work.
[I hope that by the time you read this, RNA 2.0 will already be
 out on comp.sources.misc ]
All i have to do is adding a new keyword inside the parser
(for instance 'ADD', 'REMOVE' or whatever, along with their
 aliases) and put an appropriate handling inside interpreter.
Inside RNA you already deal with a bunch of useful variables
deducted from mail's header. Like: $UUCP_SENDER , $ARPA_SENDER etc.
Actually the only requested thing is that email has to contain
'@@' on the line with rna commands.

Rnalib 2.1 will contain also list-server cababilities. If you 
have good ideas about features, please let's talk about it here
so the program can come out the way you like.

Of course, if rna is not on sources.misc save this article and
forget it by the time being....

Ciao, Paolo
