Mark Linimon ea04a4be1e Add a new article about how to use the FreeBSD mailing lists effectively. 
I intend this article to be the first thing that new FreeBSD users
encounter when looking for information about mailing lists (i.e. I intend
to replace most links in our existing web pages to the 'How to get the
best results from freebsd-questions' article to this one instead; and
to have that article referenced from this one).  That will happen shortly
(not yet).

Much of the text is indeed recycled from that article (thanks to Grog
for permission to do so), but some, including the bikeshed meta-info,
is my own.  I have also generalized his article to apply to any mailing
list (not just FreeBSD-specific, although there is new text that touches
on that as well).

I have no doubt that there are rough edges in this article (both
stylistically and formatting).  Please let me know.  NB: it has
been tested locally with a make in the articles/ directory.

PR:		docs/64934
Discussed with:	ceri, grog, a few others.
