[Mailman-Users] Re: One Button Direct Subscription

[David Padilla]

I should have been more clear. I want to create direct subscription to announcement only lists, similiar to those see ALL over the net. You know those, add your e-mail and become subscirbed to our next newletter, or anouncement, etc.

Thanks,
david
