Creating a Mailing List

[DrVonKatze]

So, my webpage [http://rant.x10hosting.com] is extremely basic, as are my web-programming skills (AND my english too, by the way), and I'm really too old to have the patience to learn any of these fancy programming languages young lads use nowadays ¬¬

With that in mind, I want to put one of these boxes with a "subscribe" button, where people would type in their email, so I'd build a database of potential readers to keep posted about site updates.
I understand PHPList is used for that sort of matter, and I assume what I'm looking for fits in the "PHPList 101" category, hence it should be stupidly easy to implement, probably with a 3-step idiot-proof tutorial; but I can't for the life of me figure how the hell to do it, nor find said tutorial anywhere. Is it just me being incredibly incapable or am I missing something?

Thoughts?
