Lately I have seen alot of emails from people who don't bother to
subscribe to this list, yet expect help from us. I was wondering if the
mailing list system could be modified such that if someone tries to mail
the list then they would get a message saying they have to subscribe. In
addition, once they subscribe their message would be posted
automatically. Of course, there would need to be provisions made to
prevent someone from getting spammed by someone faking a From: Header.
Possibly such messages could be limited to one every 24 hours.

The best solution, or at least the one we use, is for subscribed users
to cc the unsubscribed users with the answer. IMO, if we are helpful to
them, they may subscribe and then help out in the future. For
instructions on how to set up filters to no when someone is
unsubscribed, please see these:
