==Possible Solutions== | |||
The following software has been noted as potentially helping with this problem: | |||
* [http://gmane.org/ Gmane] - mail to news/web gateway service. Web interface not awesome. | |||
* [https://github.com/CyberShadow/DFeed DFeed] - web interface to news server. Lightning fast and featureful. | |||
* [https://www.sympa.org/ Sympa] - mail and web, but no news support | |||
* [http://cvs.prohost.org/index.php FUDForum] - [http://cvs.prohost.org/index.php/Features#Mailing_List_and_NNTP_Integration can be used] as a web-based gateway to newsgroups or mailing lists | |||
