<1:77>From DARWIN@iris.uncg.edu  Thu Sep  9 00:31:38 1993

Date: Thu, 09 Sep 1993 01:38:03 -0400 (EDT)
From: DARWIN@iris.uncg.edu
Subject: Summary of useful listserv commands
To: darwin-l@ukanaix.cc.ukans.edu
Organization: University of NC at Greensboro

The following are the most commonly used listserv commands that Darwin-L
members may wish to know.  I will work all this information into a revised
welcome message for new subscribers sometime soon.

NOTE: ALL these commands must be sent to the listserv address, NOT to Darwin-L
itself; that is, they should all be sent to listserv@ukanaix.cc.ukans.edu, NOT
to Darwin-L@ukanaix.cc.ukans.edu.

To subscribe:

   SUBSCRIBE DARWIN-L <your name>

   For example: SUBSCRIBE DARWIN-L JOHN SMITH

To cancel your subscription:

   UNSUBSCRIBE DARWIN-L

To see the list of current subscribers:

   REVIEW DARWIN-L

To hide your name so that it doesn't appear when others REVIEW the list:

   SET DARWIN-L CONCEAL YES

To reverse the previous command:

   SET DARWIN-L CONCEAL NO

(CONCEAL NO is the default for all subscribers when they first join; unless you
explicitly conceal your name the REVIEW command will show it.)

To receive mail from the list in digest form (one message per day, consisting
of all the day's posts strung together one after another):

   SET DARWIN-L MAIL DIGEST

To receive mail from the list as soon as it is posted, individually, one
message at a time (this is the default setting all subscribers have when they
join; the only reason you would have to issue this command is if you have
_already_ set your mail to "digest", and now wish to change it back to
one-at-a-time):

   SET DARWIN-L MAIL ACK

If you wish to see even a few other technical commands that most users don't
need, you can get a complete command list by sending the message:
