PIPORG-L List Command Summary

Shown below is a summary of the most frequently used listserv commands for PIPORG-L. They should be sent as mail to listserv@listserv.albany.edu from the address you used to subscribe to the list. The commands are case-insensitive and the mail message may contain more than one command if desired.

SIGNOFF PIPORG-L to leave the list.
SET PIPORG-L DIGEST to have postings accumulate in a digest file until the file exceeds 1500 lines or 10 p.m. (US Eastern Time) arrives, whichever happens first. This is a bit of a misnomer — the postings are not "digested" or otherwise edited; you receive copies of all postings in their entirety. To cancel digest mode, SET PIPORG-L NODIGEST .

An elaboration of digest mode is the HTML option. Use this if your mail reader is closely coupled to your web browser. Clicking items in the digest table of contents cause the corresponding postings to appear in the browser window. To enable, SET PIPORG-L DIGEST HTML .
SET PIPORG-L INDEX to have sent to you only a list of posting subject lines along with sender names. The index is sent out the same time as the digest, and from the index you can order to be sent to you those postings which you want to read in full. To cancel, SET PIPORG-L NOINDEX .
SET PIPORG-L NOMAIL causes listserv to suspend the sending of postings to you. This is useful if you are going to be away from your computer for a time and want to avoid mailbox overflow. To cancel NOMAIL, send the command SET PIPORG-L MAIL.
