Re: [Savannah-help-public] request for freetype mailing lists

[Sylvain Beucler]

I created the 4 mailing lists (you should have received
notifications).

If you want to process the mboxes, such as spam filtering, please do
so and then submit another tarball. I will then import the mboxes.

You will also be able to subscribe people using the Mailman web
interface ('Mass subscription'). Remember not to remove the option to
notify people, since the notification will also contain their Mailman
password.
