CHOMSKY Members:
This is a reminder of the various Listserv commands available to you.
All of the following commands *must* be sent to the LISTSERV address.
The LISTSERV address is:
<[log in to unmask]>
You may leave the list at anytime by sending a:
UNSUBSCRIBE CHOMSKY
or
SIGNOFF CHOMSKY
in the body of the message.
Example:
TO: [log in to unmask]
SUBJECT:
------------- Message Text --------------
UNSUBSCRIBE CHOMSKY
You *must* UNSUBSCRIBE from the same address you subscribed with.
No Mail
______
To TEMPORARILY stop incoming mail for CHOMSKY you should issue the NOMAIL
command.
NOMAIL will TEMPORARILY STOP your CHOMSKY mail until YOU start it
again. The command syntax is:
SET CHOMSKY NOMAIL
Example:
TO: [log in to unmask]
SUBJECT:
------------- Message Text --------------
SET CHOMSKY NOMAIL
Use the NOMAIL command if you are going to be away for a few days and do
not want to come back to 500 pieces of CHOMSKY mail. This is a great
command because you can still send information/postings to the list
although you will not receive any posts. NOMAIL your mail as often as you
like.
When you are ready to start receiving CHOMSKY mail again, issue the
following command:
SET CHOMSKY MAIL
This command will start your mail again.
Example:
TO: [log in to unmask]
SUBJECT:
------------- Message Text --------------
SET CHOMSKY MAIL
A daily DIGEST is available by issuing the following command:
SET CHOMSKY DIGEST
You will receive all the individual postings in one e-mail message.
You can then simply scan the table of contents and decide if there is
anything there of interest to you. If there is, you can check it out. If
not . . . delete the digest. You are informed and you have one less
e-mail message
Example:
TO: [log in to unmask]
SUBJECT:
------------- Message Text --------------
SET CHOMSKY DIGEST
