I will try to shift the mailing list to majordomo on sunday evening.
Majordomo will automatically ask for confirmation after subscribe
request is sent. I have setup a test installation at my site, which I
will move it to the other site later.
Can some of you send `subscribe linuxers' as the message to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] After you become a member, just send a
test message.
