Dear WSNers: all this applied also to WSN. Just substitute WSN for IPE in
the following. chriscd
This is a monthly reminder of some of the listserv commands at your
disposal. I have used caps for emphasis -- all commands and
addresses are case insensitive.
The commands/messages discussed below should all be sent to
LISTSERV@csf.colorado.edu or LISTPROC@csf.colorado.edu
The unsubscribe command is just two words: UNSUB IPE
These two words should be in the body of the message, not the subject
line.
Most common mistakes:
1. The inclusion of personal names with the unsub request.
2. Punctuation marks near the two words E.g.,
"unsub ipe" rather than unsub ipe
>unsub ipe rather than unsub ipe
unsub ipe. rather than unsub ipe
unsub <ipe> rather than unsub ipe
3. Trying to unsubscribe from an new address when your subscription
is registered under an old address. To determine the address under
which you are subscribed, send listserv@csf the two word request
RECIPIENTS IPE
If your efforts to unsub have been frustrated, please write to
gonick@csf.colorado.edu (or to manager@csf when I'm absent), rather
than taking the problem to the list. It is helpful to forward a copy
of mail from listserv@csf that shows the source of your problem.
------------ MAIL SETTINGS ------------
If you would like to receive IPE messages twice-a-week in a batch instead
of one-by-one, everyday, send the following command to LISTSERV@csf
If you are going to be away and want to postpone messages from IPE again
send a message to LISTSERV@csf and in the message box use
SET IPE MAIL POSTPONE
To unpostpone your mail or return to one-at-a-time message delivery, use
SET IPE MAIL ACK
All subscribers have one of three settings: ACK, DIGEST or POSTPONE
ACK is the default setting.
To determine which setting you have on your mail, send the command
SET IPE
-------- INDEX and GET cmds ----------
If you want to see an index of the logs of past messages and other files
send (to LISTSERV@csf) the command
INDEX IPE
The list of files returned from the index command are retrievable
with the get command. If, for example, you are interested in messages
from January 94, you send a message to
LISTSERV@csf and in the body of the message type
GET IPE JAN94
If you have friends who would like to subscribe, they should use
the command
SUB IPE Firstname Lastname
Unlike the unsub command, this one requires! more than two words.
