Here are the instructions how to (un)subscribe this list




Dear colleague,

Here is a short guide how to (un)subscribe to forest list.
If you still have problems please send e-mail to forest-request@nic.funet.fi.

! Please note the correct spelling of the list name. The occasional messages 
! from the "forest-owner" -address are due to mailserver setup. Any messages
! to that address are not forwarded to the list.

=======================================================================

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>
->
->	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 E-MAIL MESSAGES TO ALL LIST MEMBERS !
