If you didn't "use the website to join" how then did you subscribe to 
this mail list?

BTW - considering your level of understanding of the English language, 
this means *B*y *T*he *W*ay - did you ever get past the kindergarten 
level in your attempt at learning the English language, its grammar and 
how to write sentences in the English language?

In what you wrote above, just to take a few examples of your crass grasp 
of the English language, "what is already know" is expressed by persons 
who have a grasp of the English language as, "what is already *known*"; 
and, "ill spell it out..." is written as, "I'll spell it out..." [note 
not only the use of the "'" in "I'll" but also the capital "I" in "I'll" 
- the English language makes use of capital letters at the beginning of 
sentences and when writing proper nouns; it also makes use of sorts of 
other punctuations when writing.

You haven't come across any of this these, have you?

But do carry on.

I don't have a problem with reading and dealing with posts written by 
people whose first language is not English - mine certainly is not - so 
carry on. But at least ask your mentor to write for you in proper 
English what you are supposed to write, OK, and not let you make up 
words which you have no understanding  of how to express :-) ? (Of 
course I am stating this because I do not believe that someone like 
yourself would come up with what you wrote above on your own accord for 
obvious reasons.)
