I think it should be on the website page where it lists all the mailing |
| 23 |
lists and should also be in the email where you confirm it. I know when |
| 24 |
I first joined, I had to get someone to tell me how to make it send text |
| 25 |
only. I didn't know either. No, I'm not a reformed windoze user |
| 26 |
either. I have never had windoze. Started with Mandrake, got pissed at |
| 27 |
the update process and been with Gentoo ever since. :-p |

It may be common knowledge to some but not everybody. This was my first |
| 30 |
mailing list to ever subscribe too. |
