NativeNet LISTSERV address

This is a note to inform subscribers of the NativeNet lists that the TAMVM1
system (at Texas A & M University) is apparently no longer accessible via
Bitnet, so addresses ending in "tamvm1.bitnet" are no longer valid (I am
working to confirm this apparent fact, and will send more information when
I receive it). In any event, you should be able to communicate with the
LISTSERV software at TAMVM1 (for subscribing, unsubscribing, setting "nomail"
mode, etc.) using the address:

listserv@tamvm1.tamu.edu

whether or not you are on a Bitnet system. Please let me know if you have
any problems with this procedure.

Since this is a time of year when many people go on vacation, and want to
avoid having their mailboxes fill up during their absence, here's another
copy of the instructions for setting "nomail" mode and unsubscribing. I
hope you're all having a good summer!

In order to unsubscribe from one of the NativeNet mailing lists, you
need to send a message to the appropriate listserver. For the NATIVE-L,
NATCHAT, NAT-1492, NAT-LANG and NAT-HLTH lists, send a message to
"LISTSERV@TAMVM1.TAMU.EDU" saying:

signoff NATIVE-L
or
signoff NATCHAT
or
signoff NAT-1492
or
signoff NAT-LANG
or
signoff NAT-HLTH

For NAT-EDU, send the message "signoff NAT-EDU" instead to the address
"LISTSERV@INDYCMS.IUPUI.EDU"

If you just want to turn off mail during a period of absence, so that your
mailbox doesn't overflow, send instead the message:

set NATIVE-L nomail
or
set NATCHAT nomail
or
set NAT-1492 nomail
or
set NAT-LANG nomail
or
set NAT-HLTH nomail

For NAT-EDU, send the message "set NAT-EDU nomail" instead to the address
"LISTSERV@INDYCMS.IUPUI.EDU"

(Later you just say "set NATIVE-L mail," etc. to re-enable mail to the
accounts.) You can send any number of these requests in the same message.
