WOMEN-IN-HOCKEY MAILING LIST INSTRUCTIONS ========================================= Here is information about the women-in-hockey mailing list. If you have any problems, please consult the women-in-hockey mailing list page at http://www.lists.plaidworks.com/Women-in-Hockey.html (1) How to get onto the women-in-hockey mailing list: a) Send an email message to women-in-hockey-digest-subscribe@plaidworks.com It doesn't matter what you put in the subject and body part of your message. b) After you do this, a message will automatically be sent to you. The message will contain a line that looks like this: auth auth_key subscribe women-in-hockey-digest your_email_address Reply to the message (the mail gets sent to Majordomo@plaidworks.com) and make sure that the message that you are replying with contains exactly this one line: auth auth_key subscribe women-in-hockey-digest your_email_address IF THERE ARE ANY OTHER CHARACTERS (SUCH AS ">" ADDED TO THE LINE BY YOUR MAIL PROGRAM, MAKE SURE YOU DELETE THEM.) Send your reply message. HERE IS AN EXAMPLE: Suppose my e-mail name is janedoe@whockey.com. When I subscribed to the list in step 1a, I got back a message that said that I should reply with this line to subscribe: auth 9e1986f7 subscribe women-in-hockey-digest janedoe@whockey.com So I hit the reply button on my mail reader, and it starts composing a message to Majordomo@plaidworks.com. I make sure that the only text in the body of the message is auth 9e1986f7 subscribe women-in-hockey-digest janedoe@whockey.com Then I send the message off, and now I am fully subscribed to the mailing list. (2) How to get OFF the women-in-hockey mailing list: Send an e-mail message to women-in-hockey-digest-unsubscribe@plaidworks.com (3) Sending an article to the mailing list: When you want to send a message to the mailing list, send it to: women-in-hockey@plaidworks.com Note: (a) This address is different than the address used to subscribe to the mailing list. (b) everyone who is subscribed to the mailing list will receive a copy of your message. (4) Digest Mode -vs- Individual Message Mode I'll start by explaining the difference between the regular mailing list (women-in-hockey) and the digest form of the mailing list (women-in-hockey-digest). For both forms of the mailing list you will receive all messages that the other subscribers have sent to the list. The difference is that with the women-in-hockey list you will receive each message in a separate e-mail message, but with the women-in-hockey-digest list you receive one message each day that contains all messages sent that day. Since there may be 20 to 30 messages sent each day, I highly recommend the digest form of the mailing list: women-in-hockey-digest. This makes the amount of e-mail received from the list quite manageable. The instructions that I have given in this page are for the digest form of the mailing list. If you want to join the individual message form of the mailing list, please see the instructions at http://www.lists.plaidworks.com/Women-in-Hockey.html If you are on one form of the mailing list and you wish to switch to the other form, you must unsubscribe from the one you are on and then subscribe to the other one.
