Re: USENET group???

[Raymond <Reb.barnett@xxxxxxx>]

Personally I much prefer the way this eGroup works - it doesn't bother
my inbox because messages get filtered into a folder, and I don't worry
quite so much about spam as I would do if I were using the newsgroups.
Messages are much more accessible via the egroup because I don't have to
login to the newserver to read them...
