Errr... why don't you set up local newsgroups and gateway mailing lists
into them with newsgate, then? That what we do here with roughly
100 lists. It's very nice, once it's set up.
[Though to anybody who does this, I'd heavily recommend disabling INN's
"check for included text vs. new text" 'feature'; otherwise, you'll
lose messages without ever knowing it.]
