OT : How to 'nomail' this list

Hi,

	I want to interact with this list via nntp (gmane), but since this list
is member-only, I must subscribe to post.  I didn't find the way to set
the option not to receive messages from the list.

A hint?

Thanks,

Ugo

Most people who "nomail" lists use one of the web archives as their primary
means of accessing messages. Works quite well.

I'm curious ... How will you read the replies to your messages?

There should, however, be a digest mode available.  That would reduce 
the frequency of emails to once per day (you could then add a MUA rule 
to delete the email automatically).

Check with your list owner, but I believe you can send an empty email
to <listname>-allow-subscribe@<list_addr>.  I own an ezmlm list and I
use that to allow a subscriber to post from an alternate address but
not have list traffic sent there, since they already get it at their
primary address.

Homer didn't happen to mention where he found the manual (for women)
did he?

I don't believe this is possible via ezmlm.  Either you're subscribed (and
receive mails) or you're not.

Ugo,

if they use ezmlm-idx instead of plain ezmlm, than you can subscribe to 
a post-only account.
