The Samba mailing lists, other than
samba-announce, generate a large volume of messages. If you
think you will only read the lists infrequently, it may be
better to read them in the archives or through a news server. This will save bandwidth for
yourself and samba.org, and will save filling up your email
inbox.
We strongly recommend this for people using webmail services
such as Yahoo! and HotMail; a few days traffic on the samba
lists can be enough to completely fill a free mailbox, causing
you to lose other messages. In fact, new subscriptions from
these domains are no longer accepted on the high-volume lists.NNTP Interface
