Thanks to Srinivas P <param1@hotmail.com> for this
information:
There's a comprehensive list of mailing-lists at:
http://www.cs.ualberta.ca/~srinivas/indmail.html
Mailing-lists related to India are increasing every day,
and new lists are being allowed to form very easily at
http://www.listbot.com or http://www.egroups.com
Says Srinivas:
It is advisable to have small number but effective mailing lists.
In my opinion the biggest and very effective mailing lists are
the ones managed at www.indnet.org
