List addresses
The list has two addresses. It's important to understand the difference
between the two:

listserv@gerry.vanagon.com Use this address to send email to the list
server. This is the address where you send commands to affect how the server
sends you messages. For example, subscribe and unsubscribe commands go to
this address.
vanagon@gerry.vanagon.com Use this address to send email to everyone on the
vanagon mailing list. (Note that you must be a subscriber to send email to
this address!)

Unsubscribing permanently
To unsubscribe from the list send email to listserv@gerry.vanagon.com. Fill
it out as follows:

To: listserv@gerry.vanagon.com
Subject:   (leave this blank)
Body: unsubscribe vanagon

Send the message. You should get a reply from the Vanagon mailing list
within a few hours. Follow the instructions in this message to complete your
subscription.

Remember, Do not send this message to vanagon@gerry.vanagon.com!

Unsubscribing temporarily
The Vanagon mailing list allows you to turn off the flow of messages
temporarily. This is useful, for example, when going on vacation. To turn
off messages temporarily, send the following message:

To: listserv@gerry.vanagon.com
Subject:   (leave this blank)
Body: set vanagon nomail

Send the message. You should get a confirmation from the Vanagon mailing
list within a few hours.

Note that messages will not be saved for you while you've turned off mail,
but you can review these messages from the archive.

To turn mail back on when you return, send the following message:

To: listserv@gerry.vanagon.com
Subject:   (leave this blank)
Body: set vanagon mail

If you wish to get mail in digest mode, send the following message:

To: listserv@gerry.vanagon.com
Subject:   (leave this blank)
Body: set vanagon digest

Send one of the messages above. You should get a confirmation from the
Vanagon mailing list within a few hours.



Problems?
Usually unsubscribing to the list is fairly straightforward. If you're
having problems, send email to vanagon-request@gerry.vanagon.com and one of
the list administrators will try to help you.
