Re: postgresql newsgroups

I agree completely. Also these group send back an email to posts that
they don't reconize as coming from someone who as subscribed to the
group which I have. There really doesn't seem to be enough posting to
warrent all of those different groups.

by the way, can i access my postgresql database using perl running on
WinNT, how? thanks!
