I'm trying to unsubscribe to the list (sorry folks, but I got my questions
answered). Unfortunately, the Majordomo doens't seem to recognize "linux-msdos"
as is indicated on the DOSEmu web site.
Is there a problem, or is there another way that I can unsubscribe to this list?
Thanks,
Ron

> II. SUBSCRIBING TO A LIST
>
> Once you've determined that you wish to subscribe to one or more lists on
> this system, you can send commands to Majordomo to have it add you to the
> list, so you can begin receiving mailings.
>
> To receive list mail at the address from which you're sending your mail,
> simply say "subscribe" followed by the list's name:
>
> subscribe demo-list
>
> If for some reason you wish to have the mailings go to a different address
> (a friend's address, a specific other system on which you have an account,
> or an address which is more correct than the one that automatically appears
> in the "From:" header on the mail you send), you would add that address to
> the command. For instance, if you're sending a request from your work
> account, but wish to receive "demo-list" mail at your personal account
> (for which we will use "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" as an example), you'd put
> the line
>
> subscribe demo-list [EMAIL PROTECTED]
>
> in the mail message body.

> Based on configuration decisions made by the list owners, you may be added
> to the mailing list automatically. You may also receive notification
> that an authorization key is required for subscription. Another message
> will be sent to the address to be subscribed (which may or may not be the

> command found in that message back to [EMAIL PROTECTED] (This can be
> a bit of extra hassle, but it helps keep you from being swamped in extra

> for approval; some lists have waiting lists, or policies about who may
> subscribe. If your request is forwarded for approval, the list owner
> should contact you soon after your request.

> Upon subscribing, you should receive an introductory message, containing

> III. UNSUBSCRIBING FROM MAILING LISTS
>
> Your original intro message contains the exact command which should be
> used to remove your address from the list. However, in most cases, you
> may simply send the command "unsubscribe" followed by the list name:
>
> unsubscribe demo-list
>
> (This command may fail if your provider has changed the way your
> address is shown in your mail.)
>
> To remove an address other than the one from which you're sending
> the request, give that address in the command:
>
> unsubscribe demo-list [EMAIL PROTECTED]
>
> In either of these cases, you can tell [EMAIL PROTECTED] to remove
> the address in question from all lists on this server by using "*"
> in place of the list name:
>
> unsubscribe *
> unsubscribe * [EMAIL PROTECTED]
>
> IV. FINDING THE LISTS TO WHICH AN ADDRESS IS SUBSCRIBED
>
> To find the lists to which your address is subscribed, send this command
> in the body of a mail message to [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
>
> which
>
> You can look for other addresses, or parts of an address, by specifying
> the text for which Majordomo should search. For instance, to find which
> users at my-isp.com are subscribed to which lists, you might send the
> command
>
> which my-isp.com
>
> Note that many list owners completely or fully disable the "which"
> command, considering it a privacy violation.
>
> V. FINDING OUT WHO'S SUBSCRIBED TO A LIST
>
> To get a list of the addresses on a particular list, you may use the
> "who" command, followed by the name of the list:
>
> who demo-list
>
> Note that many list owners allow only a list's subscribers to use the
> "who" command, or disable it completely, believing it to be a privacy
> violation.
>
> VI. RETRIEVING FILES FROM A LIST'S ARCHIVES
>
> Many list owners keep archives of files associated with a list. These
> may include:
> - back issues of the list
> - help files, user profiles, and other documents associated with the list
> - daily, monthly, or yearly archives for the list
>
> To find out if a list has any files associated with it, use the "index"
> command:
>
> index demo-list
>
> If you see files in which you're interested, you may retrieve them by
> using the "get" command and specifying the list name and archive filename.
> For instance, to retrieve the files called "profile.form" (presumably a
> form to fill out with your profile) and "demo-list.9611" (presumably the
> messages posted to the list in November 1996), you would put the lines
>
> get demo-list profile.form
> get demo-list demo-list.9611
>
> in your mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
>
> VII. GETTING MORE HELP
>
> To contact a human site manager, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
> To contact the owner of a specific list, send mail to that list's
> approval address, which is formed by adding "-approval" to the user-name
> portion of the list's address. For instance, to contact the list owner
> for [EMAIL PROTECTED], you would send mail to
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
>
> To get another copy of this help message, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
> with a line saying
>
> help
