Hi Victor,
That's easy:
Sign-up and Administering your subscription status:
All commands (such as subscribe and signoff) must be sent to
[log in to unmask] You must never try to send any command to mail forum
address (i.e. <forum name>@ipc.org), as it will be distributed to all
the subscribers.
Also, please note that no other text, such as electronic signature,
etc., should be present in the messages to [log in to unmask] If your
e-mail program automatically appends your signature to the message,
please remove it.
Example for subscribing:
TO: [log in to unmask]
SUBJECT:
MESSAGE: subscribe TechNet Joseph H. Smith
Example for signing off:
TO: [log in to unmask]
SUBJECT:
MESSAGE: signoff DesignerCouncil
NOTE:You must send messages to the forum address ONLY from the e-mail
address to which you want to apply changes. In other words, if you want
to sign off the mail list, you must send the SIGNOFF command from the
address that you want removed from the forum.
Additional Commands:
SET <forum name> <option>
Command enables/disables a specified option.
EXAMPLE:
TO: [log in to unmask]
SUBJECT:
MESSAGE: SET TechNet nomail
Please note that the commands, addresses and forum names are not case
sensitive, and you can send as many commands as you need in one message
as long as they are on separate lines.
The available options are as follows:
Options: Query This command returns your subscriber options. To be
executed correctly, the message must be sent from the address about
which you are making a query. The syntax is:
QUERY <forum name>
Also, wildcards are supported. For example, sending a command
QUERY *
will return a list of all forums to which you are subscribed, with all
subscriber options for these forums.
Mail/Nomail Setting the NOMail option stops mail from the forumt to
you, but leaves you subscribed to the list. NOMail is often used by
subscribers who are leaving the office for vacation or an extended
business trip, and do not want a full mailbox when they return.
Setting the Mail option is the complementary command that restarts mail
delivery from the forum to you. It does not alter the Digest/Index
normal delivery settings (see below).
For example, to temporarily disable mail delivery from TechNet to your
address, send the following command:
SET TechNet NOMAIL
Please note, if you use an auto-responder while on vacation without
setting your subscription options to NOMail, your "vacation" messages
may bounce back to the mail list and you may be "served off" from the
forum when you return. This is because the server will be unable to
process the message from your auto-responder and will consider it an
error. Being "served off" simply means that any commands you send to
mail list will be ignored until the forum administrator restores your
normal status.
Digest/Nodigest Setting the Digest option causes the subscriber to
receive one e-mail posting per digest cycle (typically daily) rather
than individual messages as they are processed by the mail list. Digest
negates Index delivery mode, enables mail delivery.
Setting the NODigest option causes individual messages to be sent to the
subscriber.
For example, to start receiving the TechNet messages in digest form,
send a following command:
SET TechNet DIGEST
Index/Noindex Setting the Index option causes the subscriber to receive
one posting per digest cycle, containing only an index of subject topics
for all messages during that cycle. Instructions on how to retrieve the
individual postings are included with the index. Index negates Digest
delivery mode and enables mail delivery.
Setting the NOIndex option causes individual messages to be sent to the
subscriber.
For example, to start receiving TechNet messages in index form, send the
following command:
SET TechNet INDEX
Search This command allows you to search a database of all previous
postings to the specified forum. The syntax is:
SEARCH <search string> IN <forum name>
For example, to search TechNet for gold plating, send the following
command:
SEARCH gold plating IN TechNet
Adding SINCE <date> after the forum name will impose the time
constraints on your search, i.e., command
SEARCH gold plating IN TechNet SINCE 97/01/01
will search all postings since January 1'st 1997.
ACK/NOACK When you send a message, the server responds with a
confirmation message, saying that "your message was delivered to the
forum, etc.", but, by default, the copy of your message is NOT sent to
you. In other words, when you send a message to the forum, you do not
receive it back as a posting. However, you can change this default for
yourself by setting following options:
ACK - A short confirmation message is sent to the sender of the posting
(default)
NOACK - No posting acknowledgment is sent
Repro/NORepro REPRO - You receive a copy of your own postings
NOREPRO - You do not receive a copy of your own postings
For example, to receive both confirmation of the posting and the posting
itself for your TechNet submission, send a command:
SET TECHNET REPRO
To receive only your posting but not the posting acknowledgment:
SET TECHNET NOACK
SET TECHNET REPRO
THANKS - You can send this command to see if the server is alive, and
the messages to and from the server are delivered normally.The server
politely responds, "You're welcome!".
