Thanks for the comments. Just out of curiosity, why are the ads at the top
on the mingw list now? Other egroups lists I am on have them at the bottom.
Frankly, the ads at the top is enough to make me want to move, if I were the
one making the decision. They are just too obtrusive. Ads at the bottom are
fine, and seem a reasonable way of supporting a free mailing list. But at
the top distracts too much from the content.

If mingw were staying with Egroups, I'd start looking for a way of
automatically filtering the ads now that they are at the top - this seems to
me to defeat the object....

Paul.
