| 
|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.
