Mailing lists are used extensively by the Mozilla community for many things, including:

• questions that require more than casual effort to consider and answer
• advocating for a particular direction of development
• making the community aware of new projects or updates
• inviting participation in a project

Some lists are less active than others, but they are all read by experienced Mozilla contributors. Questions asked with sincerity and ordinary politeness will get a response.

There are two ways to access the mailing lists:

• subscribe to individual mailing lists and receive new posts by email
• browse groups as a Usenet archive via Google Groups

Here are a few lists to get you started:

List Topic	Listserv	Usenet
