<title>Mailing Lists</title>
<section>
<body>
<p>
The Gentoo free software project has a number of public mailing lists, covering
a variety of Gentoo-related subjects. Our mailing lists are powered by <uri
link="http://mlmmj.mmj.dk">mlmmj</uri> and provides <c>List-Id:</c> mail headers
and <c>[listname]</c> subject prefixes to comply with modern mailing list
manager standards and conventions.
</p>
<p>
One interacts with <c>mlmmj</c> via email. To subscribe to a list, send an
empty email to:
</p>
<p>
<c>listname+subscribe@lists.gentoo.org</c>
</p>
<note>
Replace 'listname' with the actual name of the list that you want to subscribe
to, e.g.: <c>gentoo-user+subscribe@lists.gentoo.org</c> to subscribe to the
<c>gentoo-user</c> mailing list.
</note>
<p>
Once subscribed to the list, you can post to it by sending an email to:
</p>
<p>
<c>listname@lists.gentoo.org</c>
</p>
<p>
To unsubscribe from a list, send an empty email to:
</p>
<p>
<c>listname+unsubscribe@lists.gentoo.org</c>
</p>
<p>
All of our lists also have a corresponding digest list. Digest lists will mail
a single email to you every couple of days, rather than individual emails for
each post. If you are subscribed to the digest variant and wish to be
unsubscribed, you must specifically unsubscribe from the digest variant. Using
the email address that you wish to (un)subscribe, send an empty email to the
following addresses to subscribe and unsubscribe from mailing lists
respectively:
</p>
<p>
<c>listname+subscribe-digest@lists.gentoo.org</c><br/>
<c>listname+unsubscribe-digest@lists.gentoo.org</c>
</p>
<p>
Some users may want to post to the list, but not actually receive mail from
it (such as those who read lists via an alternate method, such as gmane).
These users may subscribe to the "nomail" option of each list:
</p>
<p>
<c>listname+subscribe-nomail@lists.gentoo.org</c><br/>
<c>listname+unsubscribe-nomail@lists.gentoo.org</c>
</p>
<p>
You can learn more about the capabilities of mlmmj by sending an empty mail to
the following address:
</p>
<p>
<c>listname+help@lists.gentoo.org</c><br/>
</p>
<impo>
You can also learn more about the Gentoo mailing list system, including
etiquette and acceptable behavior, by reading the short Gentoo <uri
link="#faq">mailing list FAQ</uri> that appears later in this document.

<title>Mailing List Mini-FAQ</title>
<body>
<p>
<b>I subscribed to a list using my home email address, but I can't post to
the list from work. What do I do to fix this?</b>
</p>
<p>
To reduce spam, all of our lists are configured to only allow posts from
official subscriber email addresses. Fortunately, <c>mlmmj</c> supports "nomail"
subscriptions, allowing you to register alternate email addresses that can be
used only for posting to the list. Here's an example of how this works. Let's
say you subscribed to the <c>gentoo-dev</c> list as <c>jim@home.com</c>, but
you'd also like to post to the list using your <c>james@work.com</c> email
address. To do this, send a message (as <c>james@work.com</c>) to
<c>gentoo-dev+subscribe-nomail@lists.gentoo.org</c> You should then be allowed
to post to <c>gentoo-dev</c> using both your home and work email addresses.
</p>
<p>
In line with the original spam reduction goal, if you post to the list from a
non-subscribed address, your mail will be delivered to <path>/dev/null</path>.
You will <b>not</b> receive any bounce message from our servers. This prevents
spammers from forging your address to get a bounce delivered to you.
</p>
<p>
<b>I want to switch from regular delivery to digest delivery. How do I do
this?</b>
</p>
<p>
Unsubscribe from the normal list and then subscribe to the digest list. For
list <c>listname</c>, this would be done by sending empty emails to the
following two addresses:
</p>
<p><c>listname+unsubscribe@lists.gentoo.org</c><br/>
<c>listname+subscribe-digest@lists.gentoo.org</c>
</p>
<p>
<b>How do I use procmail to filter Gentoo mailing list messages?</b>
</p>
<p>
To filter incoming mail arriving from list <c>listname</c>, use the following
<c>procmail</c> recipe:
</p>
<pre caption="Sample procmail recipe">
:0:
* ^List-Id:.*listname\.gentoo\.org
Mail/listname
</pre>
<p>
This is identical to how you'd filter incoming <e>Mailman</e> mailing list
manager emails.
</p>
<p>
<b>Miscellaneous list policies.</b>
</p>
<p>
HTML email is discouraged, but not forbidden (there are some MUA, specifically
web-based that make it very hard to disable HTML entirely). Beware that some
users may have their recieving side configured to hide HTML entirely, so it
might look like you are ignored, especially if you sent HTML-only email. In
order of preference, you should endeavour to send: text/plain, multipart with
text/plain before text/html, text/html. MIME is acceptable and widely used.
</p>
<p>
Please do not send any vacation or out of office messages to the list. In the
interests of reducing list spam, if you set any auto-responding message that
goes to the lists, we will unsubscribe your account from ALL lists. Any
previously subscribed addresses that send mail server messages to the lists will
also be removed.
</p>
<p>
Do not cross-post when sending messages to a list! Sending the same message to
more than one list at a time leads to fragmentation of the thread when some
people reply on one list, and some on another list. There's no guarantee that
the recipients of your message are on both lists. Choose just one list when
sending a message.
</p>
<note>
For general email list etiquette, <uri
link="http://www.dtcc.edu/cs/rfc1855.html">these guidelines</uri> are an
excellent primer.
