Re: [TANGO-L] E-mail address change



Lynn (and others)

I think this list is no longer moderated, so requests for changes
in your membership options need to go directly to the listserv (not
to the list). The information I have:

 How to change your subscription or subscription options
==========================================================
In case you prefer  an option other than the one  you currently signed up
for,  here  are  the  instructions   for  subscribing  or  changing  your
subscription options to TANGO-L.

You should e-mail the command(s) shown below  in the BODY of a message to
LISTSERV @MITVMA.MIT.EDU multiple  commands may appear in  the same e-mail
message, and  are processed  sequentially. The exception  to this  is the
subscribe command, which generates a confirmation message to you that you
must  reply  to  before  you   are  subscribed;  until  you  are  finally
subscribed, you  cannot change any  options (like digest), so  you cannot
"subscribe" and "set" in the same e-mail message.

a. To subscribe to TANGO-L (UN-digested):
        subscribe TANGO-L Yourfirstname Yourlastname

b. To change to the (daily) digest option to TANGO-L, after your
   subscription has been confirmed:
        set TANGO-L digest

c. To change from digest to regular mail, use:
        set TANGO-L mail

d. You can also turn mail off temporarily with:
        set TANGO-L nomail
   This may be useful to do if you are going to be away
   for some time and don't want your mail to pile up.

e. To turn mail back on (that was turned off with the
   "set TANGO-L nomail" command), use the command:
        set TANGO-L mail          (for undigested), or
        set TANGO-L digest        (for digested)

f. To unsubscribe completely from a list, use:
        signoff TANGO-L      or
        unsubscribe TANGO-L

Note that the digest/mail/nomail settings  are all mutually exclusive, so
that exactly  one will always  be active  (default when you  subscribe is
"mail").  This means  that you  cannot,  for instance,  receive both  the
digested and undigested  versions of the SAME list,  unless you subscribe
twice under two different e-mail addresses.

This document is fairly old, but I think the directions are still current.
