Can't they setup some extra filters that let pass some "very default"
extensions for the assembly-mailinglists? Okay, and only if they are
smaller then about 50kb. (examples/snippets of code, bigger than that?
Don't think so...)

Extensions like:
*.asm; *.z80  -  assembly files (dûh)
*.c  -  C files (Ti-89/92/92+ and in the 'future' Ti-8xs)
*.h  -  C or assembly header files
*.def  -  define files, used by some assemblers
*.txt  -  plain text

*.lib  -  library files use by some assemblers/linkers
*.bin  -  binary output file (?for VTI-83+ or Flash-emulator?)

*.zip  -  (windows) packed files
*.tar.gz  -  (unix) packed files

Banned extensions:
*.com; *.exe; *.scr  -  often used for e-mail viruses (windows)...
*.vbs; ...; ...  -  idem dito...

And probably some more... (What about *.82p, *.83p, *.8xp, *.85s, *.86p?)
Aren't there some preconfigured config-files of Liststar on the internet?
(probably better to write them yourself (webmaster) for safety reasons,
but...)
