Debian-user is an open list, you can post whether or not you're
subscribed.  Hence all the annoyingly rude idiots who think it's
acceptable to ask for answers to be privately mailed to them when
they're asking an on-topic question in a public forum.

Witness the occasional bit of spam getting through to the list - 
/everyone/ has posting rights, as it's not a subscribers-only list.

You can safely unsubscribe and still post here, though I believe that 
you'll miss out on the most rewarding part of being here - reading 
interesting looking threads and helping out as your knowledge grows.

HTH,

AFAIK you dont need to be subscribed to post. Although, not everyone
might do reply all so you might have to check up the archives for
replies.

Okay *MY BAD*, it was ambiguous perhaps.

How do i turn off message delivery without losing my
posting privilages?


I believe that anyone can post messages to the list, but unless someone who 
replies cc's you, you obviously won't see it (without checking the archives).

Have you considered using the 'digest' version of the list ??

If you mean you want to unsubscribe from the mailing-list, you should 
have read one single mail from the list to the end:

To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact 
[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Should not be that hard...
