If you are trying to subscribe to the SAMBA-VMS mailing list, you need
to follow the instructions at the SAMBA.ORG mailing list web pages.
Sending subscription requests to the mailing list just go into the spam
filter, which means that they will probably be deleted unread.
Also if you send the request with an e-mail address of a free e-mail
provider, then use that e-mail providers mail servers to send the request.
The free e-mail providers have set SPF (Sender Policy Framework) entries
that state explicitly that only their e-mail servers are allowed to send
e-mail from them, and that e-mail from all other sources claiming to be
from them should be considered spam and rejected.
So if you send an e-mail claiming to be from a hotmail.com e-mail
address and use a mail server is not a hotmail.com or msn.com mail
server, do not expect there to be any response to it.
The same is the case for any of the other well known free e-mail addresses.
