Re: [DMCForum] Appeal for a move to a more MODERN FORMAT

[Jeff Angwin <jeff@xxxxxxxxx>]

I agree with Walt, we really need to have the email option. I hardly 
ever use the web to read through my group memberships. I either get a 
single email with the days posts added, or I get individual emails for 
every post, and automatically send them to their own searchable(!) email 
folder for parsing whenever I feel like it.

Yet there IS an alternative to Yahoo Groups. It has very little (no?) 
advertising, a great web interface, and the option to receive individual 
or digest emails. 

Check out Google Groups at http://groups.google.com
