BWAHHAHAHAHAHAHA! This is because the list server is the electronic
equivalent of a book of the month club. Pay nothing now, and you can
UNSUBSCRIBE at any time! HA! HA! HA! HA! It has you for LIFE!

I've seen a bunch of these messages lately, and I just wanted to remind
you all that the LISTSERVer is a really nice machine, and it will do
all sorts of fun things for you, but it is a very simple machine so
you have to get the syntax right.

Send a message to the list *server*, NOT this list. Think of this as
sending messages to the Postmaster when you want a change in your
service. You wouldn't send a message to your own box and expect the
Postmaster to be reading your mail...

LISTSERV -at- osuvm1 -dot- ucc -dot- okstate -dot- edu

No subject line is required. On the first line, type:

SIGNOFF TECHWR-L

and send the message. It knows who you are, it reads your address.

Thank you for your support.
