We're not gatewayed, right? That is, I got a message from L-CAD@LISTSERV.UH.EDU that I replied to and I went to the people still subscribed to the list, but it did not appear here. That's what I expected would happen if we weren't gatewayed. (...) (26 years ago, 10-Feb-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

Hi, one of the lurkers here. Todd, is there any form of digest mode for any of the newsgroups? If not, is there one in the planning stages? If so, I would be one to use it, since i do all my mailing lists that way. -Doug G (26 years ago, 10-Feb-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)

Would it be a good idea to create a temporary ng just for discussion, communication, and coordination on the JJM/L-CAD site rework? It probably isn't all that necessary, but it would be an interesting experiment in short- term newsgrouping. Steve (26 years ago, 10-Feb-99, to lugnet.cad.dev)
