How to subscribe? Any of the above-mentioned mailinglists can be subscribed to by sending an email to listar@linuxfromscratch.org and writing subscribe listname as the subject header of the message. Multiple lists at the same time can be subscribed to by using one email. This is done by writing some junk as the subject header, something that isn't a valid command like "hello". Then the subscribe commands need to be in the body of the message. The email will look like:
To: listar@linuxfromscratch.org Subject: hello subscribe lfs-discuss subscribe lfs-apps subscribe alfs-discuss
After the email is sent, the Listar program will reply with an email requesting a confirmation of the subscription request. After this confirmation email was sent back, Listar will send an email again with the message that the user has been subscribed to the list(s) along with an introduction message for that particulair list.
