Gateway to the
Mail Server
The NetBSD Project provides a variety of public mailing lists, to
facilitate communication between the users and developers of NetBSD.
All of the mailing lists are served by the Majordomo mailing
list management package, and you can find out more about how to use
the NetBSD Project's Majordomo by mailing majordomo@NetBSD.ORG
with an empty message body.
Using this WWW page, you can find out what the various mailing
lists are for, look at the mailing list archives, and even subscribe to
the mailing lists themselves! This page is broken up into three sections:
this introductory section; an index of the mailing lists, for quick
reference; and the descriptions of the mailing lists, along
with links to allow you to look at their archives and subscribe to
them.
To subscribe to a mailing list click on the
link
next to its name, in the description section of this page. You will
then have to fill out a form, to supply your e-mail address.
NOTE: For this function to work, your browser must support forms.
To obtain a mailing list archive click on the
link
next to its name, in the description section of this page. This will
place you in a directory on
ftp.NetBSD.ORG. In
that directory, there will be a set of files named by list name
and archive sequence number. Those are the mailing list archives
for that list. There will also be a file named info, which
briefly describes the archive files' contents.
NOTE: Use of this function depends on the availability of an FTP server.
Your mileage may vary.
Please note that while the majority of the NetBSD mailing lists are
normally unmoderated, there are circumstances which will occasionally
cause a mailing list to be moderated by its manager.
