        That is fine, but the question was ``what is required to set
up a bi-directional newsgroup to mailing list gateway'', my
understanding is that this person does not want to use the existing
gateway (or gateways), but wants to set up a gateway themselves...

        May you tell me what implicit assumptions I have made?
Especialy the ones that I made that ``do not relate to the issues at
hand''?  I do hope that I made all of my assuptions explicit, but if I
haven't I am most sorry...

        Again, *I* don't think that this applies to the issue at hand.
Even if it DOES relate to the issue at hand (original issue), I would
be GREATLY intrested in what it would take to set up a gateway from a
local newsgroup to a mailing list, and back (ie. bi-directional).  I
am NOT talking about setting up on American, or talking about setting
up so that my list can be read on usenet in general, I am talking
about setting up a local (ie. on my machine only), newsgroup, and a
linked mailing list (subscribable by anyone who I can get mail back
and forth on my machine).
