BTW, those of you who prefer web forums to old-fashioned email lists
might be happy to know that this list is now accessible via a web forum
interface:

http://www.jabberforum.org/forumdisplay.php?f=28

Thanks to Florian Jensen for setting this up!

Peter

This is great! I am one of those who don't like "old fashioned" ml... :-D

And so emails on the list are automatically stored in the right thread in this forum? And vis-versa, answers are sent as mails? If so, how does it work, is it a feature of vbulletin, being able of synchronize with Mailing lists?

It's a plugin for vB. And yes, it's in full sync. Replies from the forum are sent to the Mailinglist and vis-versa. Threaded and stored.

I could test it as I received my message (posted through the forum) on the ml! And now I have been able to successfully unsubscribe for any Jabber ml without any regret!!! This way is far better, as far as I am concerned, because now I will be able to follow only the threads I am interested in, not being overflowed by emails and not missing anything. As a matter of conclusion: thanks a lot.

And when a full sync with jabber pubsub nodes?! :p

Would it be possible to include forum nick in mailing list From header?
It looks strange now with all posts sent by "JabberForum".
