At least Yahoo Groups do not allow non-subscribers to send mail to a list. If
the administration of this list can't be reached then I suggest the list is
moved to Yahoo Groups instead. Besides, interface to the archive of this list
could be better, there is no search facility AFAIK, only one huge (65MB or so)
text file and separate text files for each month.

Well, the missing search facility isn't really too much of a problem really, but
the spam drives me crazy. I'm about this | close to unsubscribe from this list
because of spam even though I consider this mailing list very useful.
