The list is intended not only to discuss the rock group Queen and their music ,but also for discussing the individual members of the rock group -- Freddie Mercury, Brian May, Roger Taylor, and John Deacon. It is also a source of information about the band and its members: discographies, lyrics, current status, solo projects etc... You can also keep up to date about fan get-togethers such as conventions in various countries, solo member tour information, album releases, etc... The QMS is intended primarily as a discussion and information group, not as a marketplace.
The Queen Mailing Service is available in two formats, a regular message by message list or in a digest format in which messages are saved up and sent out as a single message when the file reaches a certain size.
There are advantages to both methods. The digest format is especially good for people who don't want as many messages in their mail box to go through or for people who pay for their mail by the message.
You may subscribe to QMS from this page, however please be aware that you must post from the exact same address that you're subscribed from. So, if your e-mail address is Yourname@somewhere.com but your mail comes out with the From: address looking like Yourname@mail.somewhere.com, you should use that as the address you subscribe from. IF you're not sure, please use the e-mail method below to subscribe, and Majordomo will select the correct address for you.
You will get an automated confirmation message from Majordomo through e-mail. You must return the line it tells you to return to complete either subscription or unsubscription! Do not return the whole message or it will not work.
