11) <p>First, if you have a problem or question about using Tor, go

12) look at the <a href="<page documentation>#Support">Support section</a>

13) for how to proceed. We (the Tor developers) spend most of
14) our time developing Tor, and we're even busier now that we <a
15) href="http://wiki.noreply.org/noreply/TheOnionRouter/TorFAQ#Funding">don't
16) have funding</a>. There are no people devoted
17) to user support, so try to help yourself before <a
18) href="http://wiki.noreply.org/noreply/TheOnionRouter/TorFAQ#SupportMail">politely
19) trying to find a volunteer</a>.</p>
20) 
21) <p>If you really do need to reach us, here are some approaches. All
22) of these addresses are @freehaven.net. Note that in practice all of
23) them go to the same small group of people, so please be patient and <a
24) href="http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html">helpful</a>.</p>
25) <ul>
26) <li><tt>tor-ops</tt> gets to the people who manage the directory
27) authorities. Use this if you run a Tor server and have a question or
28) problem with your server.</li>
29) <li><tt>tor-webmaster</tt> can fix typos on the website, change wrong
30) statements or directions on the website, and add new sections and
31) paragraphs that you send us. You might want to make a draft of your new
32) sections on <a href="http://wiki.noreply.org/noreply/TheOnionRouter">the
33) Tor wiki</a> first.</li>
34) <li><tt>tor-volunteer</tt> wants to hear about your documents, patches,
35) testing, experiences with supporting applications, and so forth inspired
36) by our <a href="<page volunteer>">volunteer page</a> (or other problems
37) you've fixed or documented about using Tor project). There's no need
38) to mail us before you start working on something -- like all volunteer
39) Internet projects, we hear from a lot of excited people who vanish soon
40) after, so we are most interested in hearing about actual progress.</li>
41) <li><tt>tor-assistants</tt> is the catch-all address for press contacts
42) and other comments and issues.</li>
43) <li><tt>donations</tt> is for questions and comments about <a href="<page
44) donate>">getting money to the developers</a>. More donations means <a
45) href="http://wiki.noreply.org/noreply/TheOnionRouter/TorFAQ#Funding">more
46) Tor</a>. We're happy to help think about creative ways for you to
47) contribute.</li>
48) <li>If you absolutely need to mail us individually, you can find
49) pointers to us on the <a href="<page people>">people page</a>.</li>
