Re: [FWDLK] Unsubscribe



Anyone may leave the list at any time by sending a "SIGNOFF L-FORWARDLOOK"
command to LISTSERV@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Please do not send requests to be added/deleted/changed to digest/put on
vacation to the list.

I've gotten a lot of requests recently about how to set your mail to
"Digest". If you find yourself facing too much Forward Look mail, you can
turn on 'digest mode' for your subscription.  This will give you one email a
day (a 'digest') that contains all of the list mail for the day.  I use this
option on several mailing lists I'm on personally, and find it to be a nice
convenient way of handling the extra mail.

You can follow the directions below to set it yourself, or simply drop me a
line and I'll set it to digest for you.


How To Set Your Subscription Options:
*********************************

Simply send a message to LISTSERV@xxxxxxxxxxxxx (not to the list!) with the
command

             SET L-ForwardLook [option1] [option2] [option3]

in the body of the message.  Don't send it to the mailing list -- send it to
LISTSERV@xxxxxxxxxxxxx

Here's the options that may be set:

1)  MAIL/NOMAIL

Setting this option to Mail indicates that you will receive mail from the
list. NOMail is the complementary command that stops mail but leaves you
subscribed to the list. (NOMail is often a good compromise for users who are
leaving the office for vacation or on extended business trips, and who don't
want a full mailbox on their return.) The format of the messages received is
controlled by the DIGEST/INDEX/NODIGEST/NOINDEX options (see below).

 NOMAIL:
          disable mail delivery.
 MAIL:
          restore mail delivery, without altering the digest/index/normal
delivery setting

example: SET L-FORWARDLOOK MAIL
example: SET L-FORWARDLOOK NOMAIL


2)  DIGEST/NODIGEST

Causes the subscriber to receive one posting per digest cycle (typically
daily) rather than individual messages as they are processed by LISTSERV.
The MAIL/NOMAIL option controls whether messages should be delivered, and
the DIGEST/INDEX/NODIGEST/NOINDEX option controls the format in which
messages should be delivered. Thus, switching to NOMAIL and back to MAIL
does not destroy the digest/index/normal delivery setting; it simply
determines whether or not LISTSERV should send any list mail to you. To
provide as much compatibility with older syntax as possible, the four
options operate as follows:

 DIGEST:
          enable digest delivery mode (which negates INDEX), enable mail
delivery.
 INDEX:
          enable index delivery mode (which negates DIGEST), enable mail
delivery


example: SET L-FORWARDLOOK DIGEST
example: SET L-FORWARDLOOK NODIGEST


3) HTML
This option when used with the DIGEST option will give you a really nice
HTML formatted "point and click" digest format that allows you to see the
messages as you choose without having to keep scrolling through the
messages. It only works with HTML-enhanced mail programs, such as Netscape,
Outlook, Eudora (and possibly AOL).   It looks great -- I really recommend
it if you use the digest form.

  HTML:
          enable HTML mode
  NOHTML:
          disable HTML mode

example: SET L-FORWARDLOOK HTML
example: SET L-FORWARDLOOK NOHTML


Reminder: Do NOT send these commands to L-ForwardLook@xxxxxxxxxxxxx ... send
them to LISTSERV@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
