[R-390] Survey to Consider Moving R-390 Mail List to Groups.IO

[Bill]

True....mailman is a  Passive delivery...I have had no problems with 
deliveries in over 20 years. I set my subscription the way I like. It is 
delivered and if I want to read it I can, if nothing suits my attention, 
I move on. I don't have to hit any buttons to see if I want to read it. 
Passive vs Interactive.

I prefer mailman myself. There have also been a couple of spams, on the 
various io groups over the years I am on, and none on mailman. Safety is 
a concern as well.
