Will I be a "newbie" every time I resubscribe? Hi Alen, The simplest way around this would be for you to set your subscription to nomail rather than unsubscribing each time. You would then be a full-time list member able to post whenever you wanted, but you would receive no emails from the list. When you wanted to receive messages again, just change back from nomail to mail.
