Franco,

Another possibility, IF (!) you don't set up an
autoresponder in your email tool while you are gone,
is to use the "Mail/Nomail" option. That way, Tech
Net can stay "2000 strong" :<)

[FROM : http://www.ipc.org/html/fsresources.htm]

Additional Commands:

 SET <forum name> <option>
 Command enables/disables a specified option.

 EXAMPLE:

      SET TechNet nomail

Mail/Nomail
                Setting the NOMail option stops mail from the forum 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.
