Why not just look at the score postings directly on the web without
subscribing?
The 3830 submittal form allows you to post scores (for supported
contests) without being subscribed. If you post a score via E-mail to
3830@contesting.com, and you're not subscribed, your score will
eventually show up, it just takes a little longer.
