Mailing lists
Mailing
lists are the primary support channel for FreeBSD users, with
numerous mailing lists covering different topic areas. When in doubt
about what list to post a question to, post to freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG. You can browse or
search the
mailing list archives at www.FreeBSD.org.
Several non-English mailing lists are also available:
If you create other FreeBSD mailing lists, let FreeBSD.org know about them. |

IRC
While #freebsd channels exist on
various IRC networks, the FreeBSD project does not
control them or endorse IRC as a support medium. You may
be ignored, insulted, or kicked out if you ask questions
on any channel in IRC, though you may have slightly
better luck in channels named #freebsdhelp where such
exist. If you want to try these or any other channels on
IRC, it is nonetheless at your own risk and any
complaints about conduct on those channels should not be
directed to the FreeBSD project.

Newsgroups
There are a few FreeBSD specific newsgroups, along with
numerous other newsgroups on topics of interest to FreeBSD users, though
the mailing lists remain the most reliable way to get in touch with the
FreeBSD developers. For miscellaneous FreeBSD discussion, see comp.unix.bsd.freebsd.misc.
For important announcements, see comp.unix.bsd.freebsd.announce.
The
BSD Usenet News Searcher
have archives of all BSD-related Usenet newsgroups from
June 1992
onwards.
