Instructions for subscribing or managing your ddots-l subscription using your e-mail program

If you use more than one E-mail address, be sure to send all requests from the E-mail address under which you are subscribed to the list.

Subscribe (three different ways)

  1. Send an E-mail message with a subject line of 'subscribe' to: ddots-l-request@freelists.org Speech users note that ddots-l is spelled d d o t s dash l. Print users please note that -l is a dash followed by the letter l, not the number one.
  2. Go to http://www.freelists.org/cgi-bin/lsg2.cgi and follow the directions.
  3. Send an E-mail to us and ask us to subscribe you.

Unsubscribe

Digest Option

Our list is sometimes quiet and sometimes fairly active. If you're simply getting too many messages from the list but definitely want to stay tuned to our list, consider changing your subscription options so you'll receive a daily digest of all messages for each day instead of each individual message.

Once you are subscribed to our list, send an E-mail message with a subject line of 'set digest' to:

ddots-l-request@freelists.org

The provider of this listserv software, will send you daily digests of list messages. However, unlike most other lists, the messages for each day are returned as E-mail attachments instead of one long message. Nonetheless, many subscribers may find this option preferable to E-mail overload!

If you make the switch to digest mode and then decide to switch back out of digest mode, send an E-mail message with a subject line of 'unset digest' to:

ddots-l-request@freelists.org

Listserv Help

If you want to see what other options are available, send an E-mail message with a subject line of 'help' to:

ddots-l-request@freelists.org

    Tips from the List Moderator

    If one of these days you stop receiving messages from the list, please let me explain why this might be.

    Every time a message is posted, where these "bounce", the moderators receive an error message. There are three main reasons for this.
  • A member has changed their e-mail address, and has not unsubscribed the old address.

  • The member's mailbox is full -- most common.

    • Most ISPs impose maximum mailbox limits of their users, sometimes very low limits. Consequently, if you go on vacation for a week or two, your mailbox can very quickly fill up. So, to avoid this, we suggest you try and set up a system to go NOMAIL, VACATION or UNSUBSCRIBE while you are away.
  • The message, which you have sent exceeds the 10k message size limit.

    • We've set this limite to avoid Digest users getting huge digests of repeated material. It is obviously beneficial, and indeed in many cases essential, to leave some relevant material in order to know what is being commented on, but do please try to cut out as much as possible.
