By the way: You don't have to be subscribed to the mailing-list at all.
You can just send emails to linux-btrfs@vger.kernel.org. The implied
reply-policy on pretty much any mailing list is reply-to-all so if
anyone replies to you he will send with To: You and CC:
linux-btrfs@vger.kernel.org and also CC: anyone else involved in the
discussion so far (Thats what the Reply-to-all button in your mail
client does). So it just works without being subscribed.
