GEN: LM_NET NOMAIL, etc. (PERIOD)

[Peter Milbury <pmilbury@ericir.syr.edu>]

Dear Colleagues,

  Recently we have received messages from members that they have had
problems setting nomail, resulting in pileups of several hundred messages
in their mailbox upon their return.

  We have investigated this, and discovered that, in some cases, the
command was mis-typed, with a period being placed at the end of the
sentence. There should NOT be a period at the end of the command. Please
note the instructions below.


     * * * *   Temporarily Stopping Mail From LM_NET   * * * *

If you want to stop receiving mail from LM_NET for a period of time, all
you have to do is send a specific message to the listserv computer which
handles LM_NET mail.

Send the message to this address:  listserv@listserv.syr.edu

   In the body of the message, on the first line, type the following:
   set lm_net nomail

To restart your LM_NET mail, send to the same address, the following:
   set lm_net mail
