- Let me try an clarify Steve's message.
-
- The LISTSERV software has a nice feature that allows the list owner to set
- up their list so that each individual gets 'reminded' that they are on the
- list on a regular basis. This list, WPWIN-L, is set to remind each person
- when they have been on the list for 1 year. If this applies to you, you
- will get a nicely worded message from LISTSERV which tells you *EXACTLY*
- how to renew your subscription. This is done by sending the command:
-
- confirm wpwin-l
-
- back to LISTSERV when you get the message that you need to renew. If you
- haven't gotten this mailing from LISTSERV then just sit back and enjoy this
- list.
-
- These automatic renewals are sent out so that LISTSERV can remove people
- who are no longer either interested in the list or who no longer exist at
- their registered address.
-
- Again, you only need to act if you receive a mailing from LISTSERV.
