That would probably be optimum. Great idea, but it has to be done right - you can't just forward a raw news message to the mailing list. Some news/e-mail clients (Outlook Express, for example) will try to open it as a news message, which messes things up. Just a word of caution to anybody considering setting up a news server for the cygwin mailing list(s).
