Here are some automatic mail servers I subscribe to:
ACTIV-L is a moderated list for political activists.
To subscribe send mail with body SUBSCRIBE ACTIV-L to
LISTSERV@MIZZOU1.MISSOURI.EDU
-- Because this is a high volume list I've chosen to receive a summary only.
Once you have subscribed you can send mail to same address, with body:
SET ACTIV-L INDEX to receive just a list of article titles with sender's ID,
with instructions on obtaining selected articles.
The articles on list ACTIV-L also appear on
a moderated newsgroup on Usenet called
misc.activism.progressive.
If you have access to Usenet, you may prefer to read the newsgroup
rather than subscribe to ACTIV-L.
There is also an UNMODERATED newsgroup
alt.activism
which includes most, or maybe all, of the
articles on ACTIV-L, and lots of additional feedback
(flame war zone).
To subscribe to the (moderated) list send mail with body SUBSCRIBE ACTIV-L to
