+<title>How to subscribe?</title>
+
+<para>
+You can subscribe to any of the above mentioned mailinglists by sending
+an email to <ulink url="mailto:listar@linuxfromscratch.org">
+listar@linuxfromscratch.org</ulink> and write <emphasis>subscribe
+listname</emphasis> in the subject line of the message.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+You can, if you want, subscribe to multiple lists at the same time using
+one email. If you want to do so, write some junk in the subject
+line, something that isn't a valid command like "hello". Then write
+the subscribe commands in the body of the message. The email will look
+like:
+</para>
+
+<blockquote><literallayout>
+
+To: listar@linuxfromscratch.org
+Subject: hello
+
+subscribe lfs-discuss
+subscribe lfs-apps
+subscribe alfs-discuss
+
+</literallayout></blockquote>
+
+<para>
+After you have sent the email, the Listar program will send you an
+email back requesting a confirmation of your subscription request. After
+you have sent back this confirmation email, Majordomo will send you an
+email again with the message that you have been subscribed to the
+list(s) along with an introduction message for that particulair list.
