Discuss mailing list

[Peter Green <peter AT greenpete.co.uk>]

I would like to explore OpenNIC mail and as such I will change my mail list 
address soon.

Also, to explore and experiment, I offer 6 free mail accounts 
(@nanohost.free) on my OpenNIC compatible server to the first that apply for 
them, should anyone be interested.

Mail spec is good (in my opinion anyway ;-)) Roundcube webmail, pop and 
I.M.A.P. Message size is 15MB. M.T.A. postfix with dovecot. I will have to 
restrict disk space, but it will still be good and very usable.

If anyone's interested drop me an e-mail.

I also like Mikes proposal, that would be interesting to explore too, but for 
now at least will leave that to others.
