------------------------------------------

<danielsh> What's your question?  Some lists (including subversion's) permit posting by non-subscribers.

> I appreciate very much the Apache tools and the corresponding Mailing Lists.
> I am currently subscribe to some of them.
> However I would like to be able to read posting to these Mailing-Lists NOT by email but through one of the
> well know Forum browser based front ends like NABBLE. See this for example:
> http://old.nabble.com/Subversion-f68.html
> How can I avoid getting all new (tons of) postings from an Apache mailing list but do not unsubscribe from it?
> Posting should still be possible by email or through nabble.com.
> This seems to me a general problem of all Apache Mailing-Lists.
> Ok, I know, the MailingList setup is up to the individual project owners.
> However my guess is that the Mailing-List software does not offer such feature or (even more probable) the feature is not enabled.
> Could this "subscribe-without-getting-postings" feature be activated and the attention of the mailing list owners be drawn to this?
> Thank you
> Ben
