- The command is:
-
- SET NOTABENE NOMAIL
-
- If you can use TELL, you can do that interactively (by typing
- the message TELL LISTSERV AT TAUNIVM SET NOTABENE NOMAIL).
- Otherwise, you send MAIL to the listserv (@taunivm, or @vm.tau.ac.il)
- with a the text of the above command as it only line.
-
- This will not work, naturally, if you send this command not from
- the address you used when you subscribed notabene.
-
- It may take a certain time before the command becomes effective
- (it cannot intercept mail altready sent to you). But in case
- you get a confirmation message but continue to receive mail, please
- drop a line to our mailer A79@taunivm (David Sitman). I
- have sent the command for you though I naturally would prefer
- not to be dragged into this administrativia if it can be
- handled by machines.
