cool, Majordomo will work... The key is being able to mirror the information posted here into an email.

When looking to switch from Groups to something new I wanted to make sure whatever we chose supported the features that people liked about clubs minus the ones people hated (which is in part why I started the "What I hate about Groups" thread at the old Group). I wanted to make sure the solution I chose wasn't going to end up causing a new set of problems, not just for me, but for everyone.

From that standpoint I ruled out a mailing-list that only worked through email since a lot of members use the web UI, and it's hard to add/support image galleries via mail-only. I looked through our user database and saw that only a small percentage was using mail delivery, so I figured it'd be more important to have a web interface first, with the mail delivery coming after.

Regarding mail delivery, I've been researching it and I think it's doable, but it's going to be a little bit before I get the code up and running. Bare with me....

When I have something for members to test out I'll let people know!
