See this OLPC wiki page for an introduction to mailing lists.
Sugar Labs lists are hosted by the GNU Mailman project. For help with their service, see their documentation page.
Introduction
to see all the Sugar Labs mailing lists. After registering your email address with the mailing list, you will receive the discussion posts or digests of the posts made to the list server. Each list maintains an archive of all its posts. A link to the archive is available on each list's info page. For example, here is a link to the Community news archive.
- You may respond to a post in the archive by clicking the author's email address (at the top of the posting). This will invoke the mailto: link to the list's address with the post's subject line and message identifiers to place your post properly in the thread.

Starting a new list
The best way to start a new mailing list is to begin a discussion on a current list that's related to the topic. Once the discussion becomes active, ask for a separate list for that topic.
When a critical mass of people are regularly discussing the same topic, email the following information to the IAEP list:
- The name for the new mailing list, with alternative names in case the first one is taken
- A description of the list, its purpose, and why it's needed (being able to say "we've been talking on this other list for a while, and the discussion has grown too big, see these archive links" is helpful)
- The name/email of the list administrator, and of at least one other moderator (minimum, one admin and one moderator)
- At least 10 names/email addresses of people who want to be the initial subscribers
