Short guide how to (un)subscribe to the FOREST mailing list



Dear Colleaque,

Here is a short guide how to (un)subscribe to the FOREST mailing list.
If you still have problems, please send me a mail again.

Ari Turkia, List-manager of forest@nic.funet.fi

=======================================================================
JOINING THE LIST:

To join the Forest-list, send an E-mail message to 

mailserver@nic.funet.fi

You will need to issue the "subscribe" command; the listserver 
software will then extract your E-mail address from your message 
and add it to the recipient list.  The first row of your message 
should be:

subscribe forest <your first name> <your last name>

For example, using the standard Unix mail program, the exchange 
would look like this:

% mail mailserver@nic.funet.fi 
Subject: <return>
<return>
subscribe forest John Smith
. 
%

The listserver program will reply to you with a confirmation message, 
and you are then able to receive messages from the list.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
LEAVING THE LIST:

To remove yourself from the list, send E-mail to "mailserver@nic.funet.fi"
and write the following command on the first row of the message body:

unsubscribe forest

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
OBTAINING MORE INFORMATION:

The list server also understands many other commands;
send the command 'help' to mailserver@nic.funet.fi for more info.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SENDING MAIL TO ALL LIST MEMBERS !

Operation of the mailing list is very simple:  
all messages that are sent to the address: forest@nic.funet.fi
are forwarded to all members who have subscribed to the forest-list.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
REMEMBER !

EVERY MESSAGE SENT TO forest@nic.funet.fi is forwarded to all members
of the list. Please, DO NOT send any mailserver commnads like 'subscribe' 
to the addres forest@nic.funet.fi.

---------------------------------------------------------------------

If you have any problems, please send a message to the list-owner:

	forest-request@nic.funet.fi or
	forest-owner@nic.funet.fi
