<h3>Mailing Lists:</h3>
Some mailing lists are used for the development and use of OpenBSD.
In each case, send mail to
<a href=mailto:majordomo@OpenBSD.org>majordomo@OpenBSD.org</a>
with a message body of "<strong>subscribe mailing-list-name</strong>".

There is a minimal set of mailing lists intentionally; among
other benefits such as more communication it reduces cross-posting.
There are no private mailing lists.
<p>
These are the mailing lists:
<dl>
<dt><strong>announce</strong>
<dd>important announcements. Since this is a low volume list
it is excellent for people who just want to follow important events.
<dt><strong>tech</strong>
<dd>technical discussions
<dt><strong>misc</strong>
<dd>user questions and answers
<dt><strong>bugs</strong>
<dd>bugs as sent in via sendbug(1) and discussion about them
<dt><strong>source-changes</strong>
<dd>automated mailout of CVS source tree changes
<dt><strong>ports</strong>
<dd>discussions about the use of the 'ports' source tree
<dt><strong>advocacy</strong>
<dd>discussions about promoting the use of OpenBSD
</dl>

<p>
For further assistance, send a message body of "<strong>help</strong>"
to <a href=mailto:majordomo@OpenBSD.org>majordomo@OpenBSD.org</a>
and you will receive a reply outlining all your options.  Your domain
<strong>MUST</strong> resolve properly or the mail will not go through!
</p>

<p>
<h3>Mailing List Archives:</h3>
A html-based <a href=http://www.sigmasoft.com/~openbsd/>
mailing list archive</a> is available.  
<a href=http://www.tryc.on.ca/obsd-lists.html>An alternate site is here.</a>
