We run a little mailman powered mailing list. Unfortunately because the server it's running on is FreeBSD and it is running under a mail.jail, and the sysop is lazy, we don't have a web interface for it.


However, you can subscribe by sending an email to

general-subscribe @ lists.skullspace.ca


Once subscribed, you can manipulate the settings via email commands as listed below:


Send "help" as the body of the email to

general-request @ lists.skullspace.ca

to get a summary of commands.


Send "set help" as the body of an email to

general-request @ lists.skullspace.ca

to get a summary of settings.


Note that most of the "set" commands must also include an authentication command. For example, to turn acknowledgement messages on, you would send the folliwing message body:

set authenticate <password>
set ack on
