Mailing List Subscriber's Guide Mailing List Subscriber's Guide Majordomo is a UNIX program that automates Internet mailing lists on fas.harvard.edu. Majordomo allows you to subscribe to a wide range of mailing lists.
Lists provide a forum for the exchange of information on a particular subject.
Users may add themselves to mailing lists supported by Majordomo, post messages, review the members of a list, etc. Mailing lists may have closed subscription, which means that the owner of the list decides who may subscribe. Lists may also be moderated, in which case the owner decides which messages are distributed to the members of a list. Unmoderated lists, or discussion-type lists, allow every member of the list to receive every message posted. Unmoderated lists tend to generate a lot of email messages.
