Community newsgroups and mailing lists
Fyracle
The Fyracle newsgroup is just that: a newsgroup. It is not a mailing list. You can access the newsgroup either by using a news reading program and connecting to the Fyracle news server or you can use the web interface to this news server. Currently, there is one newsgroup for all Fyracle related questions.
Firebird
The mailing lists listed here have a newsgroup mirror at Atkin server, so you do not need to subscribe to high-traffic lists just to occasionally watch discussed topics. But if you want post messages to a newsgroup of mirrored mailing lists, you must be subscribed to this list (for example using the no-mail/web access only option), otherwise your messages doesn't pass through news/mail gate and mailing list users don't get it.
