Mailinglisten nerven mich ziemlich. Eine komfortable Möglichkeit, neben gmane (via nntp oder http) ist nabble.com. Neben der Archivierung von MLs, kann man dort auch eigene Foren anlegen. Recht praktisch.

Why web.de is not good for you
08th of June 2003
web.de(web.de) is a popular german freemail provider.
But for some reasons their proprietary software does not conform to defacto standards on internet email.
- They don’t use the typical signature delimeter —. To fix this, simply define your signature to start with these two dashes and write you normal signature text below it.
- They always append their default self advertising web.de signature regardles if you define your own signature or not.
- Chances are good that your signature will be too long because they append their own signature.
- They refuse to send email to legitimate RFC822 email addresses that are too long (in their opinion).
For example using web.de you can’t send email to an address like this:
qmail-sc.1037024741.efblbabhbadfddbjhcnm-frank-keyword-qmailml.61aa882=somewhere.edu@list.cr.yp.to
Although Web.de is quite nice compared to other freemail providers, in my opionen those points are unacceptable. sigh
