12. Soap mailing lists (rec.arts.tv.soaps)
Is there a mailing list for my soap?
Some kind folks in r.a.t.s.* keep mailing lists for people with flakey
or non-existent newsfeeds. Many of these mailing lists do *not* have
anything in them which is not *also* on r.a.t.s.*, so if you have no
trouble getting r.a.t.s.* posts, _please_ don't overburden the volunteer
mailing-list keepers. Also be aware that some of these mailing lists
are very high-volume, so if you have little disk space, they could
easily overwhelm you. Many of the lists are _not_ run automatically,
(ie "subscribe DOOL" might not mean anything to the DOOL-spoiler
list-maintainer), so be careful how you request to be put on a list.
Here are the mailing lists I know about, what they include, and who
to contact to get on the lists:
