But I don't think that's how it works. You would have had to have sent a command something like: subscribe linux-kernel linux-newbie@vger.kernel.org That's not an accident. So I'm assuming you didn't do it. Majordomo is designed to handle multiple mailing lists, so it's entirely okay to send multiple commands in one e-mail to majordomo, like: subscribe linux-kernel subscribe linux-newbie You can respond to the confirmations with a single e-mail as well, by combining the required confirm commands into a single e-mail. And if you're in the habit of putting a sig block at the end of your e-mails, you can even tell majordomo to ignore it by inserting an 'end' command after your commands to it. I don't choose majordomo for the mailing lists I administer, but I have to admit, it has some cool features. -- David Benfell, LCP benfell@parts-unknown.org --- Resume available at http://www.parts-unknown.org/resume.html - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-newbie" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.linux-learn.org/faqs
