Honestly I don't recommend mailing lists for technical support. Especially this one where moderation is nearly non-existent and nothing prevents prolific posters from deluging with inappropriate or massively-offtopic responses. I think the Stack Overflow-like web communities of superuser.com and similar are much better for that use case. Answers supplied need to be effective and on-topic otherwise they get voted down and buried. Debian did used to have a similar thing running Shapado. It was at http://shapado.debian.net/. But it was never very well-used and ceased to work some years ago. I think this was a shame. Previous discussion of Debian's now defunct Shapado instance was here: https://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2010/10/msg00096.html Cheers, Andy -- https://bitfolk.com/ -- No-nonsense VPS hosting
