I'm sorry, I forgot to mention I'm not using Pine to view posts, I'm using
Firefox. I turned off emails for new posts as this was getting me a WHOLE
lot of emails and this ain't too cool with a dial-up connection. Also I
didn't want to sort through all those emails when I could just open the
page with Firefox when I want to see all the posts. I want to be able to
see if there's a reply to my posts only with email notification, like with
LinuxQuestions.org. Is this not possible?
First, use an internet based email server that supports IMAP, or at
least supports POP3 with the option to leave messages on the server.
There are a diminishing number of ISPs that would support an active
mailing list such as this one. You will have to ask your ISP for advice
there.
To read the list use a threaded email reader, such as thunderbird.
There is no good way to 'enter into' an existing thread unless you are
reading it with a mail reader.
Lots of folks read the list via a web browser, and thats a good thing.
However, in order to actively participate, it really requires that you
follow along in a mail reader instead. Otherwise, the best you can do
is start a topic.
For those that have more bandwidth, and are willing to allow inbound
smtp to a system that is managed properly, the process is a dream.
Use procmail to organize your mailing lists into different mailboxes.
Then using an IMAP server, and an IMAP client, it is possible to
subscribe to these other mail boxes. Makes it nice.
Good Luck!
