The NEW-LIST list is one great way. Make sure you're ready for a flood of
new subscribers before you advertise your list on it tho. It is cross
posted to the net-happenings list, and from the combined exposure, my list
got about 1200 new subscribers in about 5 days:)
Send a 'subscribe new-list' message to LISTSERV@vm1.nodak.edu to get on the
list. Here's some of the info post from the list that you'll get when you
subscribe:
NEW-LIST Information 09/01/94
NEW-LIST is a moderated distribution list which may be used to
announce the establishment of new e-mail mailing lists. Many of
the people who maintain "lists of lists" subscribe to the NEW-LIST
list as do direct users of the information.
Types of Announcements
We will accept items sent to new-list@vm1.nodak.edu or on BITNET to
NEW-LIST@NDSUVM1 as long as they follow these guidelines. While we
do not generally censor the items due to the topic matter of the list,
we might not post something if we don't feel it is complete, if it
might cause confusion, or if it doesn't fit the charter of the list.
The NEW-LIST list exists primarily for initial announcements of
new e-mail lists. The format for announcements is contained in the
file NEW-LIST FORMAT available from LISTSERV@vm1.nodak.edu (see below).
New and changed list announcements must come from a list owner,
moderator, or list server administrator. PLEASE read the NEW-LIST FORMAT
document before contributing!
