The FreeBSD website tells you how to do it, but here's my patented short
version of what you can read there:

Send a message to majordomo@freebsd.org. In teh body of the message, write

subscribe <listname>

So if you wanted to subscribe to the questions list, you should write

subscribe freebsd-questions

You can also subscribe to multiple lists at once, by adding multiple lines:

subscribe freebsd-questions
subscribe freebsd-chat

If you want to unsubscribe, just send another message to
majordomo@freebsd.org, doing everything exactly as above, but replacing the
word "subscribe" with "unsubscribe".

Notice that in order to be subscribed, you will get a verification message
that you will have to send back to majordomo@freebsd.org.

All users who tend to send their subscribe / unsubscribe requests to the
list addresses instead of majordomo should probably print these
instructions and stick them to their fridge ;-)

Greetings
Nils
