[log in to unmask]
 
   There was a "Mailing Lists" workshop session at the USENIX System
   Administration Conference (LISA VI) in Long Beach, CA, on October 22,
   1992.  The participants in that workshop expressed a desire for a
   mailing list for discussions of issues related to managing Internet
   mailing lists, including (but not limited to) software, methods,
   mechanisms, techniques, and policies.
 
   I've created the list as "[log in to unmask]".  That
   address is a direct mail reflector;  all messages sent to that
   address are immediately forwarded to the list.
 
   There is digestified version of the list is available as
   "[log in to unmask]".  The digestified version has
   exactly the same messages as the direct version;  the messages are
   simply bundled into digests daily (or more frequently, if traffic
   warrants).  Both lists are unmoderated.
 
   To join the List-Managers mailing list, send the command
 
      subscribe list-managers
 
   in the body of a message to "[log in to unmask]".  If you want
   to subscribe something other than the account the mail is coming
   from, such as a local redistribution list, then append that address
   to the "subscribe" command;  for example, to subscribe
   "local-list-managers":
 
      subscribe list-managers [log in to unmask]
 
   To subscribe to the digestified version, substitute
   "list-managers-digest" for "list-managers" in the examples above.
 
   All messages to the list are being archived.  A copy of the archive
   is available by anonymous FTP from host FTP.GreatCircle.COM,
   directory "pub/archive", compressed file "list-managers.Z".  The copy
   of the archive available by anonymous FTP is updated every night at
   midnight local time (0700 GMT in the summer, 0800 GMT in the winter).
