Subscribing
Subscribing to the lists is really easy. You just need to register online on the addresses afore-mentioned by filling in the registration form.
Then you will get a confirmation request; you'll simply have to hit "Reply" on this mail and it will be done ! A welcome message with practical informations will then be sent to you.
Once this is done you'll get every mail published on the list.
If you want to publish a message you'll need to send an email to the list address list-name@lists.bxlug.be (for example: linux-bruxelles@lists.bxlug.be).
The annonces list is moderated and should only be used to get event notices.
