Why not just use the newsgroup comp.soft-sys.math.maple?

I agree with you on the fact that it can be frustrating to not have the
messages not sent out immediately. But I am unsure about what would happen
if users were split up into 2 mailing lists. But there is one thing I do
think you could do other than immediate distribution that would be an
improvement on this list. I often like to keep the advice I am given (and
some responses to other's questions), but I sometimes delete advice to
other's questions that I end up wanting in the future. I feel it would be
much more convenient and efficient to use a newsgroup rather than a mailing
list. A newsgroup would allow me (and others) to look back at past responses
without needing to fill up our mailboxes and we could also see all the Maple
stuff in one place. But whether it is a mailing list or newsgroup, I would
still like to hear about it.
