If you are new to electronic mailing lists:
Most electronic mailing lists are interactive discussion groups conducted by electronic mail, although some are announcements only. Anyone who has access to e-mail can use this system, which is a convenient way to exchange ideas and information globally. Any member of a list can send e-mail messages addressed to the list, which the server will forward to all other members of the list. Some lists are moderated, which means that a person reviews each message before it is sent to all other members to ensure that the message is on topic and to prevent junk e-mail (spams) and personal attacks (flames). There are thousands of different lists, each containing users who share particular interests.
Since there are several different types of mailing list software (listserv; majordomo; listproc; mailbase; and almanac) specific commands for subscription, etc. may differ. However, in every case, a list of available commands can be obtained using the command "help". To subscribe to this list, send an e-mail message to the address (Listserv) given in the table below. Leave subject line blank and write: 'subscribe list-name [Your Name]' (without quotes or square parentheses) in your message; eg. subscribe ae jane doe
