WWII-L@UBVM World War II [active] A. How to subscribe to a LIST via Bitnet (use H-URBAN as example). Do NOT send a message directly to the list. Instead send it to the "listserv" that handles the list. (LISTSERV with one "E"). The Listserv program on the mainframe computer at the other end will figure out your e-address from the message header it gets from your computer. The Internet addresses above are the longer more complicated ones; most computer centers treat them the same as Bitnet addresses; if you get an error message check with your local guru. 1. Thus to subscribe to H-URBAN (that is, H-URBAN@uicvm) send a message to its listserv, which will be LISTSERV@uicvm for H-urban@uicvm. (see part B below for how to address it) --no "subject" line --the text of your message should be: SUBSCRIBE H-URBAN Your Name School for example: SUBSCRIBE H-URBAN Leslie Jones, U of Southern Nebraska 2. To unsubscribe: send this message to Listserv@node UNSUBSCRIBE listname Your Name 3. To put messages on hold for a while, send this message to listserv@node: SET listname NOMAIL that is, SET H-URBAN NOMAIL a) To resume messages: SET listname MAIL B. How to post a message for everyone on list (be sure to sign it, & give your own e-address; and keep a copy--most lists do not automatically send you a copy of your own message.) send it to listname@node that is, H-URBAN@uicvm --depending on your mainframe, you may have to use one of several variants: check with your computer center on how to send an email message to a bitnet address one variant: (IBM CMS mainframes) NOTE H-URBAN@uicvm three more variants (VAX VMS systems) in%"H-URBAN@uicvm" jnet%"H-URBAN@uicvm" po%"H-URBAN@uicvm.BITNET"
