message organization

["Benjamin Good" <good7972@hotmail.com>]

>>Aside from the freeing ramifications of each message's last three
lines, it occurs to me that this mailing list would be a lot more
useful if it were broken down a bit more. Would it be possible to
have a mailing list for each type of game on the server, that could
be subscribed to independently of the others?

this suggestion has been made periodically over the past couple years, i'm 
not sure if anybody's ever created subboards or not, or if they're still 
active.  one problem is that some people who play a lot of different types 
of games are not interested in having to subscribe to a different board for 
each game.  i personally like the digest because it includes everything in 
one email, comes once a day, and takes about a minute to read.

if there is multiple boards, then people who send out messages have to have 
a way to determine which boards get their message, and know how to do it, 
and they run a risk that certain people who might be interested in it might 
not get their message because they don't subscribe to that board.  
sharky6000 would have had to send his message out to 4 different boards.
