Any decent reader should treat mail as nicely as news; use Gnus.

email is definitely the future; nntp is an inefficient use of resources.

What reader are you trying to use?

What's wrong with subscribing? I'd like to know who's interested (that
will motivate me to finish the job), and it is a very easy way to get
rid of spam.

>no need to filter my inbox,

This I don't understand; why would the filtering requirements be
different between nntp and email?

The past archives got lost in the host change, but I'm working on
learning how to prevent that again (tips appreciated). I also don't see
archives for this particular list as very useful beyond a month or so;
any knowledge contained in emails is copied into the relevant documents
on the website.

I can't comment on this part!


In sum, I fail to see what Gmane buys me, except loss of information,
and setup and maintenance headaches.
