+<h2 id="using-mailing-lists">Using Mailing Lists</h2>
+<p>A mailing list is a way to share information and coordinate with other
project members. When you send an email
+to a mailing list it is forwarded to all other subscribers to that mailing
list.<br />
+</p>
+<p>Every OpenOffice mailing list has a list address, of the form:
[email protected], where you replace "xxx"
+with the actual list name, such as "dev" or "qa" or "marketing".<br />
+</p>
+<p>There are three basic operations you should know about:</p>
+<ul>
+<li>To send an email to the mailing list, and have it forwarded to all other
subscribers, send an email to the
+list's address, xxx.openoffice.org.</li>
+<li>To subscribe to the mailing list, so you start receiving all posts to the
mailing list, send an email to
[email protected]. You will then receive a confirmation
email. Once you respond to the
+confirmation email you are subscribed.</li>
+<li>To unsubscribe to the mailing list, so you stop receiving all posts to the
mailing list, send an email to
[email protected]. You will then receive a confirmation
email. Once you respond to the
+confirmation email you are unsubscribed.</li>
</ul>
+<p>NOTE: Please do not send subscribe/unsubscribe requests to the mailing list
itself ([email protected]).<br />
+You must send these requests to the special xxx-subscribe and xxx-unsubscribe
addresses.</p>
<h2 id="participation-guidelines">Participation Guidelines</h2>
<p>We ask all mailing list participants to observe <a
href="http://openoffice.apache.org/list-conduct.html";>these conduct
guidelines</a>. </p>
<p>Specifically note the request "Use sensible and concise email subject
headings".
