Swapnil M Mane commented on OFBIZ-10729:
----------------------------------------

Thanks you [~adityasharma] and [~jacques.le.roux].
Here are my thoughts on this.

1. I will also prefer the SubscribeMailingList-Top-Alt.png

2. We can update the instructions in "Alternate Steps:" section as follows (taken reference from [here|https://apache.org/foundation/mailinglists.html])

To subscribe to any of the following lists, please follow the steps below
 * Send an email to the appropriate address (see below)
[hidden email]
[hidden email]
[hidden email]
[hidden email]

 * You will receive an email from mailing list manager program (EZMLM);
either a confirmation request or an error message (e.g. if you are not subscribed)

 * Reply to the confirmation message

 * Congratulations! You are now subscribed

3. Just want to know the thoughts of community, Should we make alternate steps as main steps?
Since alternate steps are not having any dependency on the email client setup on machine.

4. I think, there is no need to add the Aternative steps, "Alternately, please send ......." in the mid section (SubscribeMailingList-Mid.png).

Thanks!

> As per current implementation, we have a link of lists.apache.org for subscribing mailing list,
> When a user visited lists.apache.org website it has the option to subscribe, this tries to open email client, if no email client setup on a user machine, so its difficult to subscribe.
> We can add an alternate option as well along with lists.apache.org link. A simple text with subscribe email address.
