General info
------------
Subcription/unsubscription/info requests should always be sent to
the -request address of a mailinglist.
If a mailinglist for example is called "thelist@lists.debian.org", then
the -request address can be inferred from this to be:
"thelist-request@lists.debian.org".
To subscribe to a mailinglist, simply send a message with the word
"subscribe"
in the Subject: field to the -request address of that list.
To unsubscribe from a mailinglist, simply send a message with the word (you
guessed it :-) "unsubscribe" in the Subject: field to the -request address
of
that list.
In the event of an address change, it would probably be the wisest to first
send an unsubscribe for the old address (this can be done from the new
address), and then a new subscribe to the new address (the order is
important).
Most (un)subscription requests are processed automatically without human
intervention.
Do not send multiple (un)subscription or info requests in one mail. Only
one
will be processed per mail.
NOTE: The -request server usually does quite a good job in discriminating
between (un)subscribe requests and messages intended for the
maintainer.
If you'd like to make sure a human reads your message, make it look
like a reply (i.e. the first word in the Subject: field should be
"Re:",
without the quotes of course); the -request server does not react to
replies.
The archive server
------------------
Every submission sent to this list is archived. The size of the archive
depends on the limits set by the list maintainer (it is very well possible
that only, say, the last two mails sent to the list are still archived, the
rest might have expired).
You can look at the header of every mail coming from this list to see
under what name it has been archived. The X-Mailing-List: field contains
the mailaddress of the list and the file in which this submission was
archived.
If you want to access this archive, you have to send mails to the -request
address with the word "archive" as the first word of your Subject:.
To get you started try sending a mail to the -request address with
the following:
Subject: archive help
The listmaster
--------------
To reach a human being answering your mail you may contact the address
listmaster@lists.debian.org. We will process your request as soon as
we can.
Mail sent to this address is pre-parsed and a little mail robot
will answer you. The following commands are implemented. They need
to occur in the subject line.
help send this help
lists send the list of known lists on this server
