Great :-) There is an alternative to an
archive. A SMTP to NNTP gateway. That way
the newsgroup is the archive and it has the
added bennefit of letting people use a
newsreader to read/post to the list.
You should check out the setup they have
over at www.php.net - that works really well!
If you need help writing the list search I'd
be happy to help out - I do PHP programming
for a living ;)
But what ever you choose, just having an
archive to refer to will be great whatever
form it takes :-)
