ANNOUNCEMENT LIST HELP FILE
Please familiarize yourself with how the list operates, especially if
you've never participated in an Internet email discussion group before.
It's a good idea to save this message somewhere so you know how to
unsubscribe.
When dealing with a listserver, there are two types of messages, namely,
COMMANDS and POSTS. Unlike traditional listservers which require the
use of numerous email addresses, we have simplified the process by
allowing for both both COMMANDS and POSTS to be sent to the same address.
COMMANDS
These e-mail messages are intended to cause some action to occur, such as
subscribing the FROM address to a mailing list. Commands are usually one or
two word phrases which should be entered in the SUBJECT field of the message.
Any other fields are ignored... it doesn't matter what you put in them.
The following commands are accepted:
subscribe
adds your e-mail address to the list of subscribers
you will then receive all posts as they are received
you are then allowed to post from that address
unsubscribe
removes your e-mail address from the list of subscribers
you will no longer receive any posts
you are no longer allowed to post
subscribe digest
adds your e-mail address to the list of subscribers
you will then receive one message per day which lists all posts
to switch back, send a "subscribe" command
help
this message will be returned
POSTS
These e-mail messages are intended to be distributed to everyone on the list.
This is not a general discussion list; only authorized addresses can post.
To correspond directly with a person, write to
