You can use conferences as access points to Internet mailing lists.
When you subscribe a conference to a mailing list, messages sent to the mailing list will appear in the conference.
Each mailing list has its own instructions for subscribing. In some cases, you send a subscription request and the mailing list returns a reply saying the conference is subscribed. In other cases, you must respond to the mailing list's reply before the conference is subscribed.
To subscribe a conference to a mailing list:
1 Open the conference.
2 Click Permissions.
3 Click Message.
4 Send the subscription request as instructed by the mailing list.
The mailing list will send a reply to the conference.
If you need to respond to this reply:
5 Copy the text of the mailing list's reply.
6 Click Message on the Permissions form.
7 Paste the copied text into your response.
If necessary, copy and paste the subject line as well.
8 Send the response.
