how to subscribe to mailing list?

[Ed Hartnett]

Howdy all!

How do I subscribe to the mailing list?

When I send an email to ding-request@gnus.org, with the word
"subscribe" in the body, it gets bounced back to me:

This message was created automatically by mail delivery software (Exim).

A message that you sent could not be delivered to one or more of its
