Hypermail has worked out very well for me. It provides a seemless connection between the web and listserv. Some subscribers use the web exclusively - as someone pointed out earlier, they need to be subscribed to the list to post if SEND=Private. These subscribers are set to NOMAIL. Other subscribers will never have the ability to use anything other than email. We tried to make the system two-way relying heavily on the strong structure Listserv provides. The cgi script included with Hypermail for interconnecting the listserv and the web never worked for me. I wrote a cgi script to create a better interface between Hypermail and listserv no matter what list creates HTML pages. Also, the program is easy to alter allowing one to add any Netscapisms desired. It should work on any system with a little modification from a UNIX guru (which I am NOT). EIT has a licensing agreement that must be adhered to also. An example from the OPHTHAL list (no cgi links are active on these pages): http://wings.buffalo.edu/medicine/oph/examples Aiding in the proper functioning of the interface is "Procmail" - to automatically append email messages into a file based on the "To:", "From:" or "Subject:" lines. Hypermail reads the file and creates web pages. How often the web pages are updated is something you should discuss with your system administrator. There are ways to automatically update the web pages as posts are received - some better than others. Hypermail also will convert any HTML info. This line would show up on a Hypermail page as an image: <html> <img src="http://wings.buffalo.edu/images/banners/stripe.gif"> </html> The same conversion is true if the HTML pointed to a video, audio or other type of link. This is obviously not the best place to discuss Hypermail but Eric, a web interface for Listserv is needed. Hypermail is good, but it does not incorporate all the wonderful options Listserv has to offer. A Listserv-web interface that incorporate's Hypermail-like functions, Netspace's web-Listserv interface and others I probably never heard of is a great idea. Maybe collaboration rather than duplication is an option? Ray [log in to unmask]
