Luckily, this is not the case. It is possible to subscribe to wc-discuss (or any google group for that matter) using a non-gmail address. The key step is to to create a google (not gmail) account using your own email address. There are "create an account now links" on google login pages, or this link should take you to the sign up screen where you can use an already existing account: </div><div><br></div><div><div><a href="https://www.google.com/accounts/SignUpWidget?service=groups2&continue=https://groups.google.com/a/whamcloud.com/group/wc-discuss/subscribe&hl=en">https://www.google.com/accounts/SignUpWidge</a>t</div><div><br></div></div><div>Once created, your new account will work like any other web service account associated with your email address, and will allow you to sign up for google groups like wc-discuss.</div><div><br></div><div>cheers,</div><div><div>robert</div></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><div><div>On Jun 29, 2011, at 12:01 , Andreas Dilger wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><blockquote type="cite"><div>Hi,<br>I'd like to announce the creation of a new mailing list for discussing<br>Lustre releases from Whamcloud.
