No daily, please! Monthly, rather.
Perhaps the message that goes out when one has sucessfully joined the list
can include a pointer to the FAQ for the benefit of new subscribers. This
was not done when I joined the list late last year.
Another way to handle the problem is for the mail list processor to insert
a line at the top of each message, something to the effect of "Use the
FAQ, Luke! <URL>" should do it.
