It is similar to a traditional mailing list – a list of names and addresses – as might be kept by an organization for sending publications to its members or customers, but typically refers to four things: * a list of email addresses * the people ("subscribers") receiving mail at those addresses, thus defining a community gathered around a topic of interest. * the publications (email messages) sent to those addresses, and * a reflector, which is a single email address that, when designated as the recipient of a message, will send a copy of that message to all of the subscribers. " Quoted from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_mailing_list I'm on the following lists as of yet : # Read-only * caml-news-weekly@lists.idyll.org # Read/write ## BSDs * freebsd-stable@freebsd.org * netbsd-users@netbsd.org * misc@openbsd.org ## Orbifx's * community@lists.orbitalfox.eu (defunct) * comp@lists.orbitalfox.eu (defunct) * logarion@lists.orbitalfox.eu (defunct) ## Tildeverse * tildeteam@lists.tildeverse.org (on my team email) * main@envs.net (on my envs mail) I've had good experiences so far , and I learnt many things from mailing lists in general.
