HOW TO SUBSCRIBE TO THE mamle MAILING LIST
- Make sure you have an e-mail account and MAKE SURE THAT YOUR E-MAIL PROGRAM IS SET UP PROPERLY SO YOU CAN RECEIVE MAIL! CHECK BY SENDING A LETTER TO YOURSELF, RECEIVING IT, REPLYING TO IT, AND MAKING SURE YOU GET THE REPLY.
- Send a letter to majordomo@umf.maine.edu with only these lines in the body of the letter:
subscribe mamle
end(Make sure the the "end" command is on its own line.)
- Check your mail. You should soon receive confirmation that you are a member of the "mamle" mailing list. You can now use the list.
This may seem complicated but it only takes a minute, and an incorrect return address (a very common problem) will prevent ANYONE, not just this mailing list, from replying to any of your mail.
HOW TO USE THE mamle MAILING LIST
Any mail you send to mamle@umf.maine.eduwill go to all "mamle" subscribers, and you will receive any mail anyone else sends to that address. If you reply to a letter you got from the list, your reply will go to the whole list, too. Important: Be sure the subject line of each of your letters shows what it is about. That will make it much easier for everyone to follow the several threads of discussion that will probably run concurrently on the mailing list.
BEWARE!! If you write a personal letter to someone, it can be very embarrassing to accidentally send it to a large group! Remember that your replies to list letters will go to the whole list. Whenever you reply to an e-mail, check the "To:" line at the top before you send it to make sure it is going where you intend it to go.
HOW TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THE mamle MAILING LIST
If you decide at any time that you no longer want to receive mail from the "mamle" mailing list, you can "unsubscribe:"
- Send a letter to majordomo@umf.maine.eduwith only these lines in the body of the letter:
- Check your mail. You should soon receive a confirmation that you have been removed from the "mamle" mailing list.
unsubscribe mamle
end
(Note that you send this letter to majordomo@umf.maine.edu, the mailing listmanager's address, not to mamle@umf.maine.edu, the address of the mailing list, itself.)
