If you require all the ftp maintainers to be on a mailing list (kde-ftp?) then you would simply send out an email to the mailing list... if the list were read only, then you could decide on a format for the message, then setup procmail to take care of the mail and start up the sync at set time. :o) Where there is a will, there is a way. // Sean -- ---------------------------------------------------------------- Sean Kendall Schneyer Tel: +46 (0)54 700 20 29 Computer Science Department Fax: +46 (0)54 700 20 60 Karlstad University email: mailto:Sean.Schneyer@kau.se S-651 88 Karlstad Sweden URL: http://www.cs.kau.se/~sean/
