Very cool. Would it be possible for NIP to include a reply feature like in Egroups? I tell you how I operate with the newsgroups. Which might be common to a lot of people. (1) I browse on Egroups. I don't want to receive thousands of messages directly from mailing lists. (2) When I feel like I want to post some thing, I use my e-mail account. (3) I use Egroups so I can generate a reply-quoted message (lines starting with the > symbol), I cut and paste to my e-mail account, I send off the message. Egroups is pretty good at that. The part that is slowing me down is the e-mail address mangling. If NIP can offer a reply-quoted-message, that'll be great. If it can offer membership so I can browse and reply from NIP directly, that'll be even better. :) Nowadays, for posting messages to the Zope list, I have to have 3 browser windows open: I simultaneously access Egroups, Zope.org and my Hotmail accounts. Not an easy life. But that's still a heck lot better than receiving 1000 messages per day from all the lists that I frequent. :) If NIP can help me to bring down the number of browsers windows to 2, or 1, that'll be really nice. :) For now, I still have to rely on Egroups to generate the reply-quoted message. I guess I'll use it in combination with NIP or the AIMS group. I hate the black background color of AIMS group, by the way. :) regards, Hung Jung ________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com
