The recent on-list exchange between John Summerfield and Kontorotsui has
brought a background thought of mine to the foreground, so I'd like to share
it with the list and see what the general opinion is.
I suggest that the current copy of the FAQ be included with the succesful
subscription message. I know this is possible with majordomo because other
lists do it. I believe this will reduce the volume of these questions because
it appears that most of the people posting this question have just joined
the list. (probably in order to ask that question.)
I also suggest that all messages from the list have a standard footer
appended; something like what Redhat does on their lists. I'd suggest:
(Java && Linux) - [EMAIL PROTECTED] - !(Java || Linux)
To unsubscribe: issue the following command from a shell prompt
mail -s unsubscribe [EMAIL PROTECTED] < /dev/null
or maybe that first line should be:
if (Subject == (Java && Linux)) { To = [EMAIL PROTECTED] };
Comments? Cheers all! -=Chris
