A discussion list will accept messages from subscribers for distribution
to the list on either a moderated or unmoderated basis. Distribution  
lists
send periodic electronic mail information from the list editor.
Mail-on-demand servers respond to e-mail messages by sending the  
requested
files as return mail. Unless otherwise noted, the SUBSCRIBE MESSAGE  
text is
sent to the SUBSCRIBE ADDRESS as the first line in the body of an e-mail
message.
