I participate on an egroups list (vwpassat), and it runs very smoothly.  It 
has a great searchable archive and can be read from the egroups website 
(which I think is the same as the yahoo site) or can be sent to your e-mail.

  One nice feature is that every e-mail comes prefaced with "[vwpassat]" in 
the subject line, so they can be automatically sorted.

I fully support the idea of having rules by which the list can be moderated.

  Did you noticed that about the time that was suggested the amount of 
"chaff" on the list was drastically reduced?  I haven't checked my e-mail 
from this list in about a week and had 1030 new messages.  I have deleted 
all but about 3 of them.  There's just too much stuff here that isn't 
scirocco related.

As for the typing stuff, I think Jonas had a good point and his e-mail was 
generally well founded.  I don't mind sorting through the typo's to get to a

reasonable message.  I don't think poor communication skills, even to the 
point of being illegible are reasons for a post or poster to be rejected.

Sincerely;
Brian Haygood
