Well summer will soon be apon us, and I would ask you to spare a thought for the managers who have to maintain the systems while everybody else goes on holiday. When someone is on holiday then they are not likely to be reading their mail, and if there is alot of traffic, mailboxes can get filled up, and this means mail gets bounced. Some practical suggestions: 1) Clean out your mailbox before you go on holiday. 2) Make sure you have enough disk space to receive mail. We want to avoid DISK QUOTA FULL problems. 3) If you receive you messages from LISTSERV@IRLEARN, and if you are leaving your university for good then send a SIGNOFF * (NETWIDE to LISTSERV@IRLEARN 4) People on the LISTSERV distribution can also cancel the delivery of mail for a period of time by giving the command SET +BIONEWS NOMAIL which is a toggle to stop mail delivery to you mail box. When you want to turn the mail on once again give the command SET +BIONEWS MAIL Both these command should be sent to LISTSERV@IRLEARN and not to this list. For your convenience here is a listing of the LISTS at LISTSERV@IRLEARN which will respond to the SET NOMAIL command SET +AGEING NOMAIL SET AG+FORST NOMAIL SET BIO+NAUT NOMAIL SET +BIONEWS NOMAIL SET +BIOTECH NOMAIL SET BIO+CONV NOMAIL SET BIO+JRNL NOMAIL SET +BIOMATR NOMAIL SET BIO+SOFT NOMAIL SET EMBL+DB NOMAIL SET +BIOJOBS NOMAIL SET +GENBANK NOMAIL SET GENE+ORG NOMAIL SET GNOME+PR NOMAIL SET +METHODS NOMAIL SET MOL+EVOL NOMAIL SET PIR+BB NOMAIL SET POP+BIO NOMAIL SET +PROTEIN NOMAIL SET +RESEARC NOMAIL SET SCI+RES NOMAIL SET +SWISSPR NOMAIL Taking these few precautions could save everyone from alot of trouble.
