Thanks,Pat >******************************************* > >Pat Letendre >E-mail:[log in to unmask] >******************************************* Pat, you need the NOMAIL option. A user who wants to stop getting mail temporarily from a list should send a message to the appropriate LISTSERV saying: set <listname> nomail Thus, for Autocat which is at ubvm.cc.buffalo.edu a subscriber should send a message to: [log in to unmask] saying: set autocat nomail To resume receiving mail the subscriber should send a message to the same address saying: set <listname> mail or if the user wants a digest: set <listname> digest You, as a listowner, can also set an account to NOMAIL by sending a message to the listserv saying: set <listname> nomail for <userid@node> (without the brackets) You can also set the user to MAIL or to DIGEST using the same syntax.
