Dear LM_NET Colleagues,
LM_NET postings will continue through any and all holidays,
vacations and "off-time". Please take note: summer will be
upon many of us very soon, so I want to point out two
options to consider, with respect to LM_NET's continuing
postings.
Here is some information about the differences between
changing your LM_NET settings to NOMAIL, and choosing to
SIGNOFF.
NOMAIL allows you to suspend delivery of LM_NET mail, and
you remain a member, and can post or restart delivery of
your mail at any time.
SIGNOFF means that you drop your subscription to LM_NET, and
must resubscribe.
Both options are explained below.
* * * * Temporarily Stopping (and Re-Starting) Mail From
LM_NET * * * *
If you want to stop receiving mail from LM_NET for a period
of time and still remain a member of LM_NET, all you have to
do is send a specific message (as explained below) 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
Please note: One more thing. The listserver will ask for a
confirmation,
so please be ready to respond with a simple "OK" reply.
How to quit/sign off from LM_NET....
In the event that you want to quit/sign off from LM_NET....
1. Send these words in the first (and only) line of a
message:
signoff lm_net
*Please do not include any other words
in the
message, including signature files!
2. Send your signoff message to:
listserv@listserv.syr.edu
and you will be dropped.
(No other words are necessary.)
Important Note: Some e-mail ssystems require
confirmation. The Listserv software recognizes that certain
e-mail software allows easy faking of return addresses, so
Listserv has built in a response confirmation required
checking system for all signoff requests from such
e-mailers. In this case, please allow time to reply to the
automated message that you will receive very soon after
requesting to sign off!
P L E A S E do _NOT_ send the message to LM_NET. It will
go to 11,000+ members of the discussion group, creating ill
will and consternation among our happy members.
Send it ONLY to: listserv@listserv.syr.edu
If you are unable to sign-off alone, contact the LM_NET
moderator and ask to be removed (pmilbury@iis.syr.edu. I
will do it as soon as it is humanly possible.
Glad to have you with us on LM_NET!
