well, i do have a google account and so all mails could go to my cellphone. but that's not where i want them at all. i cannot edit on my smartphone as it simply is too small and i cannot operate virtual keyboard with only one finger. so i want thoe mails sent outside of my google mailsbox - and i will reply from there. anyway, i have figure it out now: the reply to my subscription mail did not have a confirmation link in the body, but an ID in the SUBJECT! so all that was necessary was a reply to that mail, keeping that subject line (with the usual "Re:" before that). to sum this up.. subscription to this list just needs an email sent like this: echo subscribe | mail -s subscribe \ [email protected] maybe even the word "subscribe" is neither required in the subject line nore the body. in that case you could leave these out, too: echo | mail [email protected] of course you sending address should be set correctly. the resulting mail should look like this then: From: YOU <youraddress> To: [email protected] Subject: whatever the resulting email then looked like this: From: tmux-users <[email protected]> Date: Sat, 21 Nov 2020 12:02:22 +0000 To: YOURADDRESS Subject: Join request for tmux-users [{ABCDEFGH-01234567890}] Hello YOURADDRESS, We received your request to join tmux-users.

Thanks, Google Groups so.. just send an empty reply with "Subject Re: ORIGINALSUBJECT" that should suffice as confirmation. i definitely overlooked that ID there because i am so much used to URLs in the body of such mails. oh, well, live and learn. ;-) i also got some replies from folks on the #tmux IRC channel.. thanks! :-) Sven -- $ apropos tmux tmux (1) - terminal multiplexer . chat: irc://irc.freenode.net/tmux mail: [email protected] sub: [email protected] unsub: [email protected] FAQ#1: https://github.com/tmux/tmux/wiki/FAQ FAQ#2: https://github.com/tmux/tmux/wiki/Advanced-Use -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "tmux-users" group.
