AFAIK, it isn't, and after correctly completing the subscription process you 
ought to start receiving list messages there, unless for some reason your 
other ISP blocks the list messages. If there are optional spam filters at that 
non-pacbell ISP, try disabling them.

Or else, try getting a free hotmail / yahoo / netscape.net account and see if 
you can subscribe to the vim-list from there.
