Joining and Leaving the W6YX Mailing Lists
There are two mailing lists:
- w6yx-news, a public list, and
- w6yx-prv, a closed list for club members only.
Please note that only list members may post to the lists.
To join the public list, send an e-mail to "majordomo" in the following syntax: (Note that user@xyz.com is an example only. You must replace user@xyz.com with your e-mail address. If you use user@xyz.com, you will not receive a response.):
To: majordomo@w6yx.stanford.edu
Subject: (does not matter - may be null)
Message text (two separate lines):
subscribe w6yx-news user@xyz.com
end
To join the private list for members, send an e-mail to "majordomo" in the following syntax: (Note that user@xyz.com is an example only. You must replace user@xyz.com with your e-mail address. If you use user@xyz.com, you will not receive a response.):
To: majordomo@w6yx.stanford.edu
Subject: (does not matter - may be null)
Message text (two separate lines):
subscribe w6yx-prv user@xyz.com
end
It is not necessary for club members to join both lists. Those subscribed to the private list will also automatically receive all messages posted on the public list. Also, if you are seeking to join the private list, please also send an e-mail to w6yx-prv-approval@w6yx.stanford.edu explaining who you are (especially if it may not be obvious from your e-mail address alone) so that you membership status can be confirmed.
You will receive a response indicating that your request to be added is being reviewed and, if all is well, you should begin receiving list mail soon thereafter.
To unsubscribe from either list, follow the same procedure set forth above as for joining, but replacing the word "subscribe" with "unsubscribe".
