36004 2002-02-17 08:06:00 Hello.
I'm trying to subscribe to NZ ADSL mailing list, but whenever I try to subscribe I get this error message:
==============================

>>>> auth 3830951f1c85521c251eac581f279a6b
**** auth: needs key
>>>> subscribe adsl-sendonly xxxx@xxxx.co.nz
**** Your request to majordomo@lists.unixathome.org:
****
**** subscribe adsl-sendonly xxxx@xxxx.co.nz
****
**** must be authenticated. To accomplish this, another request must be
**** sent in with an authorization key, which has been sent to:
**** xxxx@xxxx.co.nz
****
==============================
I'm not sure what 'auth, needs key' means. I've followed their instructions carefully and carefully but still same error message, and still cannot subscribe.
So could someone tell me how to subscribe to NZ ADSL mailing list in detail please?
Thanks for any help in advance.
Note: I've replaced my E-mail adress to xxxx@xxxx.co.nz for privacy reasons.

36005 2002-02-19 01:43:00 I just had a look at the one I got when I joined the list. Did you send a new message with the copy/paste of the aut line. i.e auth 59813365 subscribe adsl xxxx.xxxxx@mailurl.com

I note that the ADSL list has sent no messages today so maybe it's down.

==============================
Now I am confused. Maybe there's something about the subscription server as its not recognizing the command.
