They're connected. "Subscribe to the list" makes you a member of the
mailing list (and thus you will start receiving posts), which also
entitles you to send to the list. Sending email to that address will
send it to the list. So what you're seeing is not options, but steps -
first you subscribe, then you send email.
OK. And can you tell me how to apply filters so that only replies to my emails
are included. I subscribed to the list a couple of weeks ago and then had to
unsubscribe because I was getting emails on every posted topic.
That's exactly how mailing lists work: you get everything. Any
filtering has to be done at your end in your mail program. Personally I
use Thunderbird, get it to sort messages into threads (sequences of
conversation, in effect) and only read the threads that seem interesting.

Thanks, Rhodri. One more question. What is a daily digest? I'm wondering
whether to choose that option.

Please no, not the misery of people replying to daily digests. As I've
said previously and as reinforced by Rhodri James above, point
Thunderbird or similar at news.gmane.org and read and reply to
everything to your hearts content without bothering your own inbox.
Simples :)
