You might try reading the directions. In particular, take note of the
area where it says to both save this message, and read it twice. It
tells you all sorts of useful things, like how to unsubscribe from the
mailing list (it even has the actual command text, so you can just
cut and paste it, so you don't even have to actually think about it).
That way, you don't clutter up hundreds of peoples' mailboxes with
junk mail.

  Welcome to the quattro mailing list!

  If you ever want to remove yourself from this mailing list,
  you can send mail to "Majordomo@coimbra.ans.net" with the following command
  in the body of your email message:

      unsubscribe quattro <your-subscribed-email-address>

  Here's the general information for the list you've
  subscribed to, in case you don't already have it:

		  Quattro List Info Message - December 15, 1995

		  *** SAVE THIS MESSAGE AND READ IT TWICE ***

  NO, READ IT *LOTS* OF TIMES.  REALLY.

  quattro is a list for Audi *enthusiasts*.  You need not own an Audi
  to join the list, nor must you own specifically own a quattro model,
  though many list members do.  Anything and everything about Audis can be 
  discussed, from problems to features, where to get parts and so forth. 

  This list is served by majordomo, an automated mailing list manager.
  All subscribe/unsubscribe requests are processed automatically.
  Majordomo commands ARE SENT TO MAJORDOMO, not to the list.
  Please remember this!

  Let's try that again:

  DO *NOT* SEND LIST OPERATIONS TO THE LIST ADDRESS BUT TO MAJORDOMO!!!
  That means that you DO NOT send a note to quattro saying "unsubscribe me 
  please".

  This list is unmoderated.  That means that anything you 
  send to the list can and will be delivered to all list members without
  any approval or editing.   Note that since this is a discussion list, the
  Reply-to line is set to the list.  Replying to a message will cause your
  reply to be sent to the whole list.  If you want to send a personal note to
  the person who sent the message, you need to specify that in your To: line.
  Some mailers do this automatically, some don't.  In some extreme cases you
  will need to cut-n-paste the originator's address from the message headers
  or his signature line.

  Common Questions And Problems
  =============================

  *** How do I subscribe to the list?

  To subscribe to the quattro list, send email containing the line

  subscribe quattro

  in the BODY of the message to majordomo@coimbra.ans.net.

  *** How do I submit a message to the list?

  Once you have been subscribed, you can send messages to the list by mailing to
  quattro@coimbra.ans.net.

  Should you have a problem requiring human intervention, send mail to
  quattro-owner@coimbra.ans.net.

  *** There's too much mail.  Is there a digest?

  The quattro list is a fairly active list.  AOL, Compuserve and Prodigy
  users please note - your mailbox may overfill.  This happens quite a bit.
  If it does happen often, you will be dropped from the list.  If you are
  paying per message received, you will do better with the digest instead
  since there are less headers.

  The digest version of the list contains all the messages sent to the list,
  grouped into large chunks so you get less mail messages (albeit larger 
  messages).  If you want to be on the digest version, simply subscribe to 
  quattro-digest using the method outlined above.  If you are on the normal
  quattro list and want to change to the digest version, you must unsubscribe
  from quattro and subscribe to quattro-digest using the normal procedure.

  *** I got a note about a bounce.  What's that?

  If you submitted a note to the list and you got a bounce message, it doesn't
  mean that it didn't make it to the list, but that one of the list subscribers
  could not be reached.  In most cases, you don't have to do anything, since
  I will see a copy of the bounce and try to take care of the problem.
  But if you want to, you can forward a copy of the bounce to postmaster at the
  offending site.

  *** What if MY address bounces?

  NOTE: bounces will not be tolerated.  If I notice a bounce continuing over a
	period of more than 2 days or so, I will attempt to notify your admin
	of the problem but most likely you will be dropped from the list. 
	You can always resubscribe once the problem has cleared up.

  *** I have a question.  Should I post it to the list?

  Before you start sending questions to the list, you should look at the
  archives.  There are various files on topics such as parts_vendors and 
  mechanics (the subject of these should be obvious).  If you have any
  good additions to these files, let me know.  Also, the list itself is
  archived in monthly chunks called quattro.9410, quattro.9411, etc.
  There is lots of good info on here, and odds are your question has been
  asked before, probably lots of times in fact.

  All these files are stored on coimbra.ans.net and can be retrieved using 2
  different methods:

  - email: send mail to majordomo@coimbra.ans.net, in the body say:

  index quattro

    You can then use the get command to retrive files.

  - http://coimbra.ans.net/quattro.html

    This is the best method, so please make use of it.

  ftp will NOT work, nor will telnet, so don't bother trying.

  *** You still haven't answered my question about the list.

  Then fire off a note to quattro-owner@coimbra.ans.net.  I'll be glad
  to help if I can.  Note that I am not an all-knowing quattro guru, so
  send your Audi-related questions to the list...AFTER checking the archives.

  Enjoy the list!

  Your friendly listmeister :)
