Charley and I recently added additional Pacific information to the
WX-TROPL mailing list.  I received some comments from folks asking
if we could create separate lists for the Atlantic vs. Pacific mailings.
While this is technically possible, we are trying to reduce the number
of separate lists --not increase them.  However, LISTSERV now has a
nifty feature that allows users to specify which mailings they want to
receive.

I have created two sub-topics under WX-TROPL --Atlantic and Pacific.
By default, subscribers are set to receive ALL mailings, however, this
can be changed via the SET TOPICS: command.

For example, if you only want the Atlantic tropical information sent to you
send the following command to LISTSERV@VMD.CSO.UIUC.EDU:

   SET WX-TROPL TOPICS: ATLANTIC

If you want just the Pacific information you would send the following
message to LISTSERV@VMD.CSO.UIUC.EDU:

   SET WX-TROPL TOPICS: PACIFIC

If you change your settings but then decide to go back to receiving
all the information, send the following message:

   SET WX-TROPL TOPICS: ALL

** IMPORTANT NOTE:
In order to implement these changes we had to change the subject
lines for all products on WX-TROPL.  This change will mainly affect
users who are using software to intelligently select massages.
Whereas the old subject line might look like:

   220338 Pacific-Marine-Advisory (AUTOMATIC)

The new subject line will look like:

   Pacific: Marine Advisory -220338 (AUTOMATIC)

Questions concerning these changes should be addressed to
