How to post a thread in mailing list?
 
Fisrt, very sorry for my simple question.
I believe it is simple to many people.
However, I have tried more than ten times, all failed.
I want post a thread in freedos32's mailing list.
The homepage of freedos32 is
http://freedos-32.sourceforge.net/

I type "***** Help for FreeDOS-32-dev mailing list:" in my mail's subject entry,
"Help for how to install freedos32 into the harddisk?" in my mail's body.
But I receive a mail, it said: "
This is an automated response.

There were problems with the email commands you sent to Mailman via
the administrative address
<freedos-32-dev-request@lists.sourceforge.net>.

To obtain instructions on valid Mailman email commands, send email to
<freedos-32-dev-request@lists.sourceforge.net> with the word "help" in
the subject line or in the body of the message.

If you want to reach the human being that manages this mailing list,
please send your message to
<freedos-32-dev-admin@lists.sourceforge.net>.

The following is a detailed description of the problems.

Help for FreeDOS-32-dev mailing list:

This is email command help for version 2.0.9-sf.net of the "Mailman"
list manager. The following describes commands you can send to get
information about and control your subscription to Mailman lists at
this site. A command can be in the subject line or in the body of the
message.

Note that much of the following can also be accomplished via the World
Wide Web, at:

https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/...freedos-32-dev

In particular, you can use the Web site to have your password sent to
your delivery address.

List specific commands (subscribe, who, etc) should be sent to the
*-request address for the particular list, e.g. for the 'mailman'
list, use 'mailman-request@...'.

About the descriptions - words in "<>"s signify REQUIRED items and
words in "[]" denote OPTIONAL items. Do not include the "<>"s or
"[]"s when you use the commands.

The following commands are valid:

subscribe [password] [digest-option] [address=<address>]
Subscribe to the mailing list. Your password must be given to
unsubscribe or change your options. When you subscribe to the
list, you'll be reminded of your password periodically.
'digest-option' may be either: 'nodigest' or 'digest' (no
quotes!) If you wish to subscribe an address other than the
address you send this request from, you may specify
"address=<email address>" (no brackets around the email
address, no quotes!)

unsubscribe <password> [address]
Unsubscribe from the mailing list. Your password must match
the one you gave when you subscribed. If you are trying to
unsubscribe from a different address than the one you
subscribed from, you may specify it in the 'address' field.

of cruft).
