I have sympathy for you, but only to a small extent because what you
are forced to do at your work clearly should be not be held as binding
to others.

Why not use any of the free mail services available on the 'net?  Most
can be access from corporate networks.  That would solve your problem
of being forced to use a particular mailer.

The gnu.org mailing lists are open lists.  It is not necessary to be
subscribed to post messages.  So at least at this time it is not
necessary to be subscribed at all if you read the messages by other
means.

Yes, but every so often this discussion just needs to happen so that
we can all wonder why people continue to use broken mailers year after
year.  And actually I can't think of a good alternative savannah list
or other that would be appropriate for this discussion.  It is
basically offtopic everywhere.
