:: Wide reach for participation.
:: If the list subscribes to a newsreader service like [http://www.gmane.org/ Gmane], then members can turn off their email delivery and use the newsreader instead. That way, readers download only the headers into their reader boxes, picking and choosing which posts they wish to read. Readers can use web interface for responding, and the list owner can set whether responses are allowed from anyone or just members only. Utilities are provided for blocking spammers and hecklers.
