LD Resources Resources for educators and for people with learning disabilities. The list is administered by a central computer. You send posts to the list to this central computer, which then in turn distributes all posts to the list members' private mailboxes. Thus, you will receive regular e-mail from your list's central computer. As a result, all you need to be part of a mailing list is an e- mail address.
Mailing lists are by subscription only.
You send a subscription request to the central computer, which then processes the request. Some lists have open subscriptions, others will require you to provide information about yourself before you will be subscribed. Some lists are moderated, others are not. Once you've been subscribed to the list, you will be sent detailed instructions on where to send queries or commands and where to send posts to the list. Many lists also send along information about list etiquette.
