Running a mailserver is so... usual. I'd really expect more from you,
Kim ;-)

What about running a news2mail gateway that would send messages from a
virtual mailing list to comp.infosystems.gopher back and forth? THAT is a
cool thing :) Heck, there are even a bunch of open-source tools around
for exactly that purpose. You don't need to provide any storage - just a
few CPU cycles, some kbps of bandwidth and... hours of your time on
maintenance.

This would make, I believe, everybody happy: usenet lovers get their NNTP
access, spam lovers can use their outlook thing, and the list gets a
reliable archiving system for free.

Wow, that would give the happiest ending to the NNTP vs email-list discussion. If you guys ask for voting, you can count my vote for that!
