You can use conferences as access points to Internet mailing lists. When you subscribe a conference to a mailing list, messages sent to the mailing list will appear in the conference. Each mailing list has its own instructions for subscribing. In some cases, you send a subscription request and the mailing list returns a reply saying the conference is subscribed. In other cases, you must respond to the mailing list's reply before the conference is subscribed. To subscribe a conference to a mailing list: 1       Choose Collaborate > Permissions with the conference open or selected. 2       Click Message. 3       Send the subscription request as instructed by the mailing list. The mailing list will send a reply to the conference. If you need to respond to this reply: 4       Copy the text of the mailing list's reply. 5       Click Message on the Permissions form. 6       Paste the copied text into your response. If necessary, copy and paste the subject line as well. 7       Send the response.
