reads the Welcome messages? It's just a message that says just that,
welcome to the list .. here's how to un-subscribe, here's the URL to the

is just commonsense :)

Maybe you can send a copy of the welcome message to everybody that sends
mail with the only word in the subject line is 'Help' .. ie: Help!! not:
Help with XFree86 3.3.6
