The nomail feature allows an address to be subscribed to the list (and to have posting authority if that's applicable), but to NOT receive list traffic. This can be an useful for a number of reasons, such as: -- turning off the list during a holiday so you aren't drowned in mail upon your return -- subscribing from multiple addresses or address aliases and to only receive copies of list traffic at one of them, thus allowing you to post from eany of your subscribed addresses and only receive one copy of the list traffic (very useful for those of us with NFS mounted mail spools). To use the nomail feature, send a message to listname-request#kanga,nu with the command "nomail <your_email_address>" eg: To: mud-dev-request#kanga,nu From: bubba#redneck,org -------- nomail bubba#redneck,org Synonyms for "nomail" are "tune-out", and "noread", and can be used instead of "nomail" in the above command. eg: To: mud-dev-request#kanga,nu From: bubba#redneck,org -------- tune-out bubba#redneck,org To turn mail back on for an address. use the "mail" command: eg: To: mud-dev-request#kanga,nu From: bubba#redneck,org -------- mail bubba#redneck,org Synonyms for "mail" are "tune-in" and "read", and can be used instead of "mail" int he above command. I'll be updating the relevant list web pages in the near future. -- J C Lawrence Internet: claw#null,net (Contractor) Internet: coder#ibm,net ---------(*) Internet: claw#under,engr.sgi.com ...Honourary Member of Clan McFud -- Teamer's Avenging Monolith... </PRE> <!--X-Body-of-Message-End--> <!--X-MsgBody-End--> <!--X-Follow-Ups--> <HR> <!--X-Follow-Ups-End--> <!--X-References--> <!--X-References-End--> <!--X-BotPNI--> <UL> <LI>Prev by Date: <STRONG><A HREF="msg00797.html">[MUD-Dev] A Metaphysics System</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Next by Date: <STRONG><A HREF="msg00799.html">[MUD-Dev] Re: MURKLE: Wot it is</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Prev by thread: <STRONG><A HREF="msg00807.html">[MUD-Dev] Re: OT: Java multithreading test source</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Next by thread: <STRONG><A HREF="msg00797.html">[MUD-Dev] A Metaphysics System</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Index(es): <UL> <LI><A HREF="index.html#00798"><STRONG>Date</STRONG></A></LI> <LI><A HREF="thread.html#00798"><STRONG>Thread</STRONG></A></LI> </UL> </LI> </UL> <!--X-BotPNI-End--> <!--X-User-Footer--> <!--X-User-Footer-End--> <ul><li>Thread context: <BLOCKQUOTE><UL> <LI><strong><A NAME="00831" HREF="msg00831.html">[MUD-Dev] RE: UO's rep system, was: CGDC</A></strong>, Koster, Raph <a href="mailto:rkoster#origin,ea.com">rkoster#origin,ea.com</a>, Mon 25 May 1998, 22:24 GMT <UL> <LI><strong><A NAME="00852" HREF="msg00852.html">[MUD-Dev] Re: UO's rep system, was: CGDC</A></strong>, J C Lawrence <a href="mailto:claw#under,engr.sgi.com">claw#under,engr.sgi.com</a>, Fri 29 May 1998, 23:56 GMT </LI> </UL> </LI> <LI><strong><A NAME="00820" HREF="msg00820.html">[MUD-Dev] mudschools</A></strong>, Robert Woods <a href="mailto:rwoods#nebula,honors.unr.edu">rwoods#nebula,honors.unr.edu</a>, Mon 25 May 1998, 02:56 GMT <LI><strong><A NAME="00807" HREF="msg00807.html">[MUD-Dev] Re: OT: Java multithreading test source</A></strong>, John Bertoglio <a href="mailto:alexb#internetcds,com">alexb#internetcds,com</a>, Sat 23 May 1998, 20:33 GMT <LI><strong><A NAME="00798" HREF="msg00798.html">[MUD-Dev] META: New list features</A></strong>, J C Lawrence <a href="mailto:claw#under,engr.sgi.com">claw#under,engr.sgi.com</a>, Fri 22 May 1998, 22:40 GMT <LI><strong><A NAME="00797" HREF="msg00797.html">[MUD-Dev] A Metaphysics System</A></strong>, s001gmu <a href="mailto:s001gmu#nova,wright.edu">s001gmu#nova,wright.edu</a>, Fri 22 May 1998, 17:02 GMT <UL> <LI><strong><A NAME="00833" HREF="msg00833.html">[MUD-Dev] Tutorial for Multi-User Environments</A></strong>, Niklas Elmqvist <a href="mailto:d97elm#dtek,chalmers.se">d97elm#dtek,chalmers.se</a>, Tue 26 May 1998, 10:50 GMT <UL> <LI><strong><A NAME="00834" HREF="msg00834.html">[MUD-Dev] Re: Tutorial for Multi-User Environments</A></strong>, Niklas Elmqvist <a href="mailto:d97elm#dtek,chalmers.se">d97elm#dtek,chalmers.se</a>, Tue 26 May 1998, 12:34 GMT </LI> </UL> </LI> </UL> </LI> <LI><strong><A NAME="00796" HREF="msg00796.html">[MUD-Dev] Re: Combat in the Abandoned Realms</A></strong>, John Bertoglio <a href="mailto:alexb#internetcds,com">alexb#internetcds,com</a>, Fri 22 May 1998, 07:53 GMT </UL></BLOCKQUOTE> </ul> <hr> <center> [ <a href="../">Other Periods</a> | <a href="../../">Other mailing lists</a> | <a href="/search.php3">Search</a> ] </center> <hr> </body> </html>
