Switching services

[Jennifer Petke]

Greetings from another enthusiastic "lurker"...

Just for clarification, the eGroups (or OneList) service *does* allow
you to subscribe to the egroups OSList where all conversations can be
sent to your email box.  There is no need to access the Web to
communicate.

The benefit is that there is a comprehensive web-based archive if you
choose not to keep each-and-every message in your email inbox.  A few
networks that I belong to use egroups, with very efficient & effective
results.

Happy days,
Jen

Hi,

I'm one of those "lurkers" of this list (and of several other lists),
being interested in OS technique (and in community building issues). I
have been joining the oslist because of its simplicity and cheapness.
Web based services do consume much more online time and are therefore
not suited for people with small budgets. Therefore, if you decide to
change to a web based system I could no longer follow your interesting
discussions.

Kind regards
Nino
