Search Again: Re: Web Based Forum vs. This Email Based One From: C Johnson Date: Friday, May 14, 2004 Time: 12:25:35 pm I don't have a problem with the way the forum is set up now. I filter all messages for this mailing list into it's own folder so I don't have a problem searching through a ton of spam or such things. It is easier for me to keep all mailing lists in the mail program for simplicity so I don't have to go to separate web sites when I need to check on something.
