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 Eric C.
