Also great to try:

Press F1 (yes, I know ... it's hilarious) in Mutt, and you'll get
the helpfile displayed. 

GOTO "3.9 Mailing lists", and take your time ...

My .muttrc says:

      lists     techtalk at linuxchix.org
      subscribe techtalk at linuxchix.org

Both lines *are* needed, I think to use anything related to List
functions. It's been a while since the .rc was put together here,
but the manual should tell you why.
