Dude, you don't generally need to subscribe to e-mail lists, to post to them.
I believe Eli told you this in another message here recently. Just send a mail
to the list and mention that you're not subscribed to the list. People are
usually good enough to CC you on the replies, so you don't need to be a
subscriber to follow the replies. All the mailing lists that I run work like
this.

I think you're deluding yourself about e-mail lists. Just try taking our
advice! If you completely ignore advice given in good faith and with good
reason, people are going to give up trying to help you.

Regards,
