  <h3><a id="aboutmail" name="aboutmail">About project mailing lists</a></h3>
  <p>Mailing lists provide a way for developers and other interested parties to 
    communicate with one another about aspects of a project, and to receive project 
    announcements. In general, the way mailing lists work depends upon the type 
    of project:</p>
  <ul>
    <li>Open source project mailing lists are available to any subscriber, but 
      may be granted limited membership by the project owners.</li>
    <li>Proprietary project mailing lists are always private; only approved subscribers, 
      usually project members, may join.</li>
  </ul>
  <p>Development projects on this site include one or more of the following mailing 
    lists:</p>
  <dl> 
    <dt>dev@@projectname.domain.com</dt>
    <dd>The main list for developers to discuss specific project development issues 
      and requirements for version control in the project.</dd>
    <dt>cvs@@projectname.domain.com</dt>
    <dd>Automated notifications of file version control changes and discussion 
      of those changes.</dd>
    <dt>announce@@projectname.domain.com</dt>
    <dd>Announcements of new releases and other major project events.</dd>
    <dt>issues@@projectname@@domain.com</dt>
    <dd>Automated notifications and discussions of the project's reported issues 
      (defects, enhancements, features, tasks, and patches) and changes made to 
      issues, such as reassignment, comments, or resolution.</dd>

    <dd>A more general discussion list for the project's end users.</dd>
  </dl>
  <h3><a id="mailsubscribe" name="mailsubscribe">Subscribing and unsubscribing</a></h3>
  <p>You can subscribe or unsubscribe to mailing lists for a particular project 
    by selecting "Mailing Lists" in the Project Resources tool bar.</p>
  <p>The <b>Project Mail</b> page includes subscribe/unsubscribe links for either 
    a message-by-message or digest version of the list, as well as options to 
    view each project list's archives.</p>
  <p>To begin the subscription process, click on the hyperlinked mailing list 
    address to which you want to subscribe and send the message from your email 
    client.</p>
  <p>You should receive a response asking for a confirmation. After you reply 
    as indicated in the email, you will receive an email welcoming you and acknowledging 
    your successful mailing list subscription. Follow the same process for unsubscribing, 
    but substitute the <strong>unsubscribe</strong> link.</p>
  <p>Once on the <b>Mailing Lists</b> page, you can view the project mailing list 
    archives by clicking on the "view archive" link next to the mailing list title 
    for that list. Click on the date range and subject links to specify the sort 
    of messages you want to see.</p>
  <p>All mailing lists associated with the project are listed here. The links 
    on this page allow you to subscribe (or unsubscribe) to the available mailing 
    lists.</p>
  <p>Most lists also have a corresponding "digest" version -- if you subscribe 
    to this you receive a single daily email with all of that day's postings.</p>
  <h3><a id="mailfeatures" name="mailfeatures">Other mailing list features</a></h3>
  <dl> 
    <dt>Posting a message</dt>
    <dd>To post a message to a mailing list for a project, send your message to: 
      <b>listname@@projectname.domain</b>. For example, to post a message to the 
      developer mailing list in project platform, send email to: <b>dev@@platform.projectname.domain</b></dd>
    <dt>Getting help</dt>
    <dd>To get an automated help message for a mailing list, send a blank email 
      message to: <b>listname-help@@projectname.domain</b>. For example, for the 
      dev mailing list in project platform, send email to: <b>dev-help@@platform.projectname.domain</b></dd>
    <dt>Contact list moderator</dt>
    <dd>To communicate with the list moderator, send an email message to: <b>list-owner@@projectname.domain</b></dd>
  </dl>
  <h3><a id="mailarchives" name="mailarchives">Mailing list archives</a></h3>
  <p>Project/component mailing list archiving is handled by <a href="http://eyebrowse.tigris.org/">EyeBrowse</a>, 
    an open source tool that stores and indexes list messages, providing multiple 
    options for browsing, reading, and searching mailing list archives via a web 
    browser. Beyond storing messages, EyeBrowse adds a database and text indexing 
    engine to handle rapid message search and retrieval.</p>
  <p>To view a mailing list's archives, select the <strong>Mailing List</strong> 
    option in the Project Resources tool bar to see a list of all mailing lists 
    for that project. Click on the <strong>View Archive</strong> link next to 
    the list you want to view. The default view for browsing mailing list archives 
    is by date summary. Other summary views available are: by <strong>Author</strong>, 
    by <strong>Subject</strong>, and by <strong>Thread</strong>.</p>
  <p>The <b>Date</b>,<b> Author</b>, <b>Subject</b>, and <b>Thread</b> views use 
    unique parameters to sort through and display mail items in the archive.</p>


 
    <p>The <b>Date</b> parameter groups mail items by year and month; all mail 
      items received in the month of May 2001 will be grouped in one category, 
      while all items received in January of 2000 will be grouped in another category. 
      A group of all mail items is also provided for convenience. You have the 
      option of viewing all mail items or selecting a particular month and year 
      for viewing. By clicking on the link to your preferred grouping, mail items 
      are presented for that grouping in date order, with the eldest first and 
      the newest last.</p>
    <p>The <b>Author</b> parameter groups mail items by the author. Each author 
      is represented as a grouping. Mail items that are responses to another item 
      are included in the group attributeted to the respondent, and not by the 
      original message author. Clicking on the link attached to the author's name 
      will provide a list of all mail items generated by that author in ascending 
      date order.</p>
    <p>The <b>Subject</b> parameter groups mail items by the original subject. 
      Each subject is represented as a grouping of mail items. Clicking on link 
      to a subject will provide a list of all mail items pertaining to that subject 
      in ascending order of receipt.</p>
    <p>The <b>Thread</b> parameter groups mail items by conversation. Each thread 
      is represented by a grouping of mail items. Clickin on the link to a thread 
      will provide a list of mail items pertaining to that thread in ascending 
      order of receipt.</p>
    <p>A mail list conversation occurs when 1). there is one or more responses 
      to a mail item, and, 2). the mail program used to create the original item 
      and the responses are capable of tracking the &quot;in-reply-to&quot; or 
      &quot;references&quot; headers. If your mail application can support SMTP 
      then any response you generate to a mail item will be viewable in a thread 
      sort. </p>
 

  <p>The <b>Subject</b> and <b>Thread</b> parameters appear to be very similar 
    in function. The difference between them is that the <b>Subject</b> parameter 
    sorts specifically on the subject headers of all emails. That is, all email 
    messages with substantially similar subject headings will appear in the same 
    grouping. For example, the &quot;this is it&quot; and &quot;RE: this is it&quot; 
    email messages will appear in the same grouping. The <b>Thread</b> grouping, 
    on the other hand, relies on the &quot;in-reply-to&quot; or &quot;references&quot; 
    headers of email messages to establish appropriate groupings. Not all email 
    applications are capable of tracking either the &quot;in-reply-to&quot; or 
    the &quot;references&quot; headers. This results in messages that you might 
    expect to be co-members of a <b>Thread</b> grouping will not appear together. 
    Further, since the <b>Thread</b> grouping is intended to track conversations, 
    more than one email message is required for a grouping to be created. The 
    email message with the subject heading &quot;this is not it&quot; and nothing 
    in the &quot;in-reply-to&quot; or &quot;references&quot; headers will not 
    appear in any <b>Thread</b> grouping. Two email messages with the same subject 
    header but with nothing in either the &quot;in-reply-to&quot; or the &quot;references&quot; 
    headers will, likewise, not be grouped. Determining which parameter to choose, 
    <b>Subject</b> or <b>Thread</b> will depend upon what your needs are. If you 
    are most interested in finding email with the same subject, the the <b>Subject</b> 
    parameter is appropriate. If you are most interested in tracking a conversation 
    taking place in email and are not concerned by missing some email that are 
    members of no conversations or were written using email software that is incapable 
    of tracking the &quot;in-reply-to&quot; or &quot;references&quot; headers, 
    the <b>Thread</b> parameter is appropriate.</p>
  <p>You can use the <strong>Search Archive</strong> link to add filters to your 
    search criteria. You can enter a search text and choose to sort by <strong>Subject</strong>, 
    <strong>Author</strong>, or <strong>Body</strong> by choosing one from the 
    drop down box under the text box. You can also search text strings of the 
    archived messages using simple Boolean operators.</p>

<P>
You can subscribe or unsubscribe to mailing lists for a particular project by selecting "Mailing Lists" in the Project Resources tool bar. 
<P>
The <B>Project Mail</B> page includes subscribe/unsubscribe links for either a message-by-message or digest version of the list, as well as options to view each project list's archives.
<P>
To subscribe: 
<UL>
<LI>If your mail client is configured for browser-based mail, click on the hyperlinked mailing list address to which you want to subscribe. 
<LI>If your mail client is not configured for browser-based mail, simply copy the hyperlinked mailing list address and paste it into the "To" field in a new email message. 
<LI>Send the message from your email client. You should receive a response asking for a confirmation. 
<LI>Reply as indicated. You will receive an email welcoming you on your successful mailing list subscription. 
</UL>
Unsubscribing is the same process, only instead of using the "subscribe" buttons or addresses, you use "unsubscribe."
<P>
Once on the Mailing Lists page, you can view the project mailing list archives by clicking on the "view archive" link next to the mailing list title for that list. Click on the date range and subject links to specify the sort of messages you want to see.
<P>
All mailing lists associated with the project are listed here. The links on this page allow you to subscribe (or unsubscribe) to the available
mailing lists. 
<P>
Most lists also have a corresponding "digest" version -- if you subscribe to this you receive a single daily email with all of that day's postings.

<ul>
<li>Open source project mailings lists are open to any subscriber, although project owners can choose to limit who may subscribe and post to certain lists.
<p>
<li>Proprietary project mailing lists are always private, that is, limited only to approved subscribers who are usually project members.
