The listinfo page (URL in footer) does not say so. I don't think anyone would go search your message first and then (not) sunscribe. I believe most will go to that page, read how to subscribe and do it. This is pretty common issue with mail lists. The info whether it accepts posts from non-subscribers in not published, at least not in the obvious places. So sometimes I post and wait for either a rejection message or that my message appears in the archive. As both can take hours if not days, I usually subscribe first. > When replying to a user's email please ensure the user's > email address is listed in the "To" field. > * Replies to this mailing list by default go to the user who sent the > email.
