And let me tell you all that this is the right thing in my case. If
this hadn't been so, I probably wouldn't have bothered to become
invovlved this much in DJGPP.

It was great to be able to send messages to the list and reading it
from the archives.

Then after a period I found out that I did read everything (very high
SNR and interesting things), so I subscribed (from both my work
account and student account, too!).
