Mike, I get them from a Topica account. It was the only way some time 
ago (5+ years?) and when I left the list I didn't unsubscribe myself, 
but set it to NoMail. Almost like in Pegasus Mail (you said you use 
Pmail) list. Me too.

I think all you need is send a message to EUforum-
subscribe at topica.com (watch for breaking line) from your current 
address (I'd suggest a throw-away address) and subscribe to an 
account. I place my posts to EUforum at topica.com and all came out 
safe'n'sound, my with a slight delay.

There's more information at http://www.rapideuphoria.com/listserv.htm 
below mid-page.

Best,
Euler
