Some of these are very specialized, and at the end of this posting I list a number that are focused on the activities of specific localized clubs. To the best of my knowledge, all the lists appearing here have open membership policies. It is my policy not to list `closed' mailing lists here. Most mailing lists provide separate addresses for administrative queries and for general mail; where separate administrative addresses exist, I have listed those below, as the general addresses are not appropriate for inquirys and requests. Listserv & majordomo: these are the two most common automatic list handlers. they take similar but not identical requests. requests should be in the body of the mail message. a listserv request to join the honda list should look like the following: sub HONDA-L Joe. W. Newbie note the real name. listserv will get the email address from the message header. a majordomo request to join the italian cars list should look like subscribe italian-cars newbie@aol.com note the email address and lack of real name. the email address is optional; if omitted, majordomo will extract the real name from the message header (this is often the best way to handle this.) ------------- Acura (see Honda list below) American Sedan (SCCA road race class, 5.0L Mustangs, Camaros, Firebirds) (send requests to asedan-request@pms706.pms.ford.com) Audi (send requests to quattro-request@aries.east.sun.com) Autocross/Solo (send requests to autox-request@autox.team.net) Datsun Bluebird/1600/510 (send requests to bluebirds-request@lachman.com) BMW Digest (majordomo list; send requests to bmw-digest@bmw.team.net) British Cars (send requests to british-cars-request@autox.team.net) Buick Grand National/Turbo Regal/GNX (send requests to gnttype-request@buick.monsanto.com) Camaro/Firebird (GM F-body) (send requests to f-body-request@spdcc.COM) Corvair (send requests to bryan@mitre.org) Corvettes there are two lists; the first is more of a competition oriented list, and the second is more general in nature (or so i am told) Competition: (send requests to vettes-request@chaos.lrk.ar.us) General: (send requests to vettes-request@asuvm.inre.asu.edu) Datsun/Fairlady Roadsters (send requests to datsun-roadsters-request@autox.team.net) Dodge Stealth/Mitsubishi 3000GT (send requests to stealth-req%jim.uucp@wupost.wustl.edu) Drag Racing (send requests to dragnet-request@chiller.compaq.com) Electric Vehicles (send requests to info-ev-request@ymir.claremont.edu) Exotic-Cars (send requests to exotic-cars-request@sol.asl.hitachi.com) Fabrication (race cars) (send requests to racefab@pms703.pms.ford.com) Ford (send requests to fords-request@freud.arc.nasa.gov) Ford Festiva (send requests to wd22yl@sun1.wwb.noaa.gov) Ford Probe (send requests to ford-probe-request@world.std.com) Formula SAE cars & competition (send requests to fsae-request@list.gatech.edu with the subject of "subscribe" and no body) Hondas (send requests to listserv@brownvm.brown.edu; listname is honda-l Hot rods (send requests to hotrod-request@dsea.com) International Harvester Digest (discussion of Scouts, pickups, etc.) (majordomo list; send requests to ihc-digest@ihc.team.net) Italian Cars (majordomo list; send requests to italian-cars-digest@italian-cars.team.net) Karting (send requests to karting-request@cmr.com) Kit Cars (send requests to majordomo@cs.usask.ca; specify kitcar as the list to subscribe to.)
