All subscription and unsubscription requests should now be sent to majordomo@sunee.uwaterloo.ca instead of rend386-request@sunee.uwaterloo.ca, and are of the following form: "subscribe rend386-announce" and "subscribe rend386-discuss". These will add you to the announcement and discussion lists, respectively. You're probably already on both lists, so you probably shouldn't need to subscribe. To unsubscribe to either list, just use "unsubscribe" instead of "subscribe". If you like, you can also send the following messages to majordomo: "which", "info rend386-announce", or "info rend386-discuss". The 'which' command tells you which of the lists you're on. The 'info' commands will mail you a copy of the "welcome to the list" messages.
