Here's the latest CONLANG welcome message.  Comments solicited.

# Subject: Welcome to the Conlang mailing list!
#
# PLEASE DO NOT DISCARD THIS MESSAGE!
#
# This is a mailing list for discussing artificial and constructed languages.
# However, it is *not* for international auxiliary language advocacy.
# The list is rather high-traffic, and you may wish to set your subscription
# to digest mode.
#
# Home page:
# There is no home page for CONLANG as such, but http://www.conlanglinks.tk
# is a very useful starting place.
#
# Unsubscribing:
# If you want to unsubscribe, send a blank email to
# conlang-unsubscribe@listserv.brown.edu.  If that doesn't work, contact
# conlang-owner@listserv.brown.edu instead.  DO NOT post a message to
# the list; such requests will be ignored.
#
# Subject line prefixes:
# The CONLANG listserv understands certain prefixes in the Subject: line. Any
# message with a subject line that begins with OT:, CHAT:, THEORY:, or USAGE:
# is not sent to subscribers who have indicated that preference.  OT and CHAT
# are used for off-topic and "chatty" messages -- CONLANG tends to have a lot
# of these.  THEORY is used for postings about linguistic theory, and
# USAGE for postings about natural language usage, especially English-language
# pronunciation threads.  Observing these conventions will make your fellow
# list members much happier.
