Hi Jonas,

When you mentioned "You need to deliver the mails to lurker-index", what
do you mean? I'm new at using mail-list software and using Linux for
handling email.

If I setup Lurker and a new mail-list, can I not send emails to that
mail list, similar to how I am currently doing now for this lurker-users
list?

Thanks!
James G.
