<p>Before you can send a message to one of the Apache Tomcat<sup>&reg;</sup> lists, you must subscribe
to that list. If you try to send a message to a list from an e-mail address that
is not subscribed to the list, it will be rejected.</p>
<p>All messages to the Tomcat lists are filtered for spam. To avoid your valid
message being marked as spam:</p>
<ul>
<li>send your message in plain text, not HTML;</li>
<li>include a subject.</li>
</ul>
<p>The following lists are available:</p>

<p>Users should consider subscribing to the

<a href="#tomcat-announce">Announcements</a> mailing lists.
The <a href="#tomcat-dev">Developer</a> list is for people interested in
helping with the development and debugging of the server.</p>
<p>Formatted archives are available in several places including <a href="https://lists.apache.org/list.html?users@tomcat.apache.org">the Apache
Mail Archives</a>, and <a href="https://marc.info/" rel="nofollow">MARC</a>. The

<p>The list listed here is the <strong>only</strong> place that configuration
and how-to questions belong, ever. Every day, users become frustrated, not
with Apache Tomcat, but how nobody will help them understand how to get
started. 95% of the time, it's not for lack of helpers, but for lack of
effort and well stated questions.</p>
<p>Before you go further, please read Eric S. Raymond and Rick Moen's
explanation of
<a href="http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html" rel="nofollow">
"How To Ask Questions The Smart Way"</a>. If you follow their advice, you
will discover that these forums have dozens of helpers ready to provide you
with guidance on using Apache Tomcat! <strong>Note: Do not send your Apache
Tomcat questions to Eric or Rick themselves!</strong></p>
<p><strong>Important:</strong></p>
<ol>
<li>You <strong>must</strong> be subscribed to the mailing list before you
post a question. If you do not subscribe first, your post will be
automatically rejected.</li>
<li>When asking questions on the list, please state your exact Tomcat version
(which is three numbers, 11.0.zz, 10.1.yy or 9.0.xx), your operating system,
and essential bits of your configuration.
</li>
<li>Note, that Tomcat Documentation is provided on this site and is searchable
(see links and search box at the left). Add "Tomcat 11.0", "Tomcat 10.1",
or "Tomcat 9.0" to your query to refine your results. The tomcat-users mailing
list archives (links are below) are also searchable.</li>
<li>The

<li>When replying, please write your text below the quoted one.
<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Posting_style#Choosing_the_proper_posting_style" rel="nofollow">Top-posting</a>
