WTF??? (was: Re: Welcome to the new(ish) ASRG list)

It didn't occur to me that you were providing email-only guidance 
because the site apparently doesn't have an interactive interface via 
the web.  This presumes that subscribers are expert in majordomo 
esoterica, such as its command set.

And no List-Archive pointer is provided in the header.

Was the purpose in choosing this home for the new list to be as a 
continuing reminder of the serious usability barriers for anti-abuse 
schemes that burden end-users with having to know special details and 
take special actions?
