ATTENTION ATTENTION ATTENTION
It's getting very near the time when many subscribers to this list
leave town for the summer, or for good. If you plan to be away from
your account for a protracted period of time, you may not want to
return to dozens of LISTSERV mail messages in your mailbox. If this
applies to you, read on for some things you can do (NOTE: you may wish
to print this out for future reference):
Below I list a few commands. When sending those commands, send e-mail
to:
listserv@ucsbvm.ucsb.edu
Include the command in the BODY of the mail. You can put anything
you want in the Subject line, but LISTSERV will ignore it.
- If you're graduating, losing the account you're currently
using, or otherwise giving up on this list, send the
following command before you go:
SIGNOFF NABOKV-L
If you're subscribed to other LISTSERV lists, you can leave
all of them in one fell swoop by sending the following
command:
SIGNOFF * (NETWIDE
(note the "(" before the word NETWIDE)
- If you're planning to be away for awhile, whether for a
couple of weeks or for the entire summer, you may want to
stop receiving posts from this list yet remain subscribed to
it. To do this, send the following command before you go:
SET NABOKV-L NOMAIL
If you SET SEELANGS NOMAIL before you left, you want to send
the following command when you return:
SET NABOKV-L MAIL
This will tell the LISTSERV that you wish to resume normal
use of the list, and you will be set back to your normal
setting, whether that's MAIL, DIGEST or INDEX.
This list is archived on the LISTSERV on a monthly basis.
When you return, you can catch up on what you missed by
using the GET command to get a month's worth of postings
(all together in a single mailing). For example:
GET NABOKV-L LOG9806
If you sent that command (at some point after June 30), the
LISTSERV would send you all the posts to the list which
appeared in June, 1998 (hence the LOG9806).
You can also search the archives and retrieve posts you'll have missed
in other ways, send the command:
INFO DATABASE
As always, if you have any questions regarding LISTSERV, please
send them directly to me at the address below, not to NABOKV-L.
Thanks.
