A COUPLE OF REMINDERS:

Anywhere in this message that you see the word ListName you should
substitute the name of the surname list you are subscribed to, i.e. if
you are on the BEERS list, change ListName to BEERS for any of the
addresses or commands.

These lists are not exceptionally active, it is not uncommon to go for
several days without messages. If you are worried that you may not be on
the list any longer, send a “review” message as shown further down in
this message.

When you respond to a message on the list it automatically goes to the
originator only. To send a copy of the response to the list in general,
you have to manually add the list address to your response.

Apparently the digest mode is working again. Although these lists aren’t
very active, you can try changing your subscription to digest according
to the instructions in your welcome message.

MESSAGE ADDRESSES:

Mail Messages to the list go to:
Commands go to:

SOME COMMANDS:

To unsubscribe from the list:
Mail to:
Subject: blank (not read by system)
Message body: UNSUB ListName

To get a copy of the ListName list welcome message (lists some other
commands):
Mail to:
Subject: blank (not read by system)
Message body: SEND ListName.HI

To make sure you are still subscribed (if you haven’t been getting any
mail):
Mail to:
Subject: blank (not read by system)
Message body: REVIEW

Then when you get a response from the server, check for your
e-mail address. If it isn’t there, subscribe again and all will be well.

If you need something specific in connection with the list, or have some
problem, send a message to with the List Name in the
subject line.

Thanks, good family hunting, and have fun!
