[Sheflug] New Sheflug List
Dear All
Welcome to the new Sheffield Linux User's Group List. For your own
personal help and understanding the help file for the list is shown
below........
***** help
Help for Shef-lug mailing list:
This is email command help for version 2.0.3 of the "Mailman" list
manager. The following describes commands you can send to get
information about and control your subscription to Mailman lists at
this site. A command can be in the subject line or in the body of the
message.
Note that much of the following can also be accomplished via the World
Wide Web, at:
http://community.uklinux.net/mailman/listinfo/shef-lug
In particular, you can use the Web site to have your password sent to
your delivery address.
List specific commands (subscribe, who, etc) should be sent to the
*-request address for the particular list, e.g. for the 'mailman'
list, use 'mailman-request [at] ...'.
About the descriptions - words in "<>"s signify REQUIRED items and
words in "[]" denote OPTIONAL items. Do not include the "<>"s or
"[]"s when you use the commands.
The following commands are valid:
subscribe [password] [digest-option] [address=<address>]
Subscribe to the mailing list. Your password must be given to
unsubscribe or change your options. When you subscribe to the
list, you'll be reminded of your password periodically.
'digest-option' may be either: 'nodigest' or 'digest' (no
quotes!) If you wish to subscribe an address other than the
address you send this request from, you may specify
"address=<email address>" (no brackets around the email
address, no quotes!)
unsubscribe <password> [address]
Unsubscribe from the mailing list. Your password must match
the one you gave when you subscribed. If you are trying to
unsubscribe from a different address than the one you
subscribed from, you may specify it in the 'address' field.

end or --
Stop processing commands (good to do if your mailer
automatically adds a signature file - it'll save you from a lot
of cruft).
Commands should be sent to shef-lug-request [at] list.sheflug.org.uk
Questions and concerns for the attention of a person should be sent to
shef-lug-admin [at] list.sheflug.org.uk
The new list is now active. Please do send further posts to ....
shef-lug@list.sheflug.org.uk
the present list will be around for a week or two to give you some
time to get used to the new one. This admin notice will be posted
more than once to make sure that everyone understands that they
should post to another address.
Thank you
