Regarding the promised improvements to the Univel mailing list....

Thanks to everyone for your patience!

I am about to shift the Univel list from a simple mailsurr alias to a
full-blown mailing-list server (Unix Listserver 6.0 -- being renamed to
ListProcessor).

In the process of moving things over, there will be a few changes that
subscribers will notice;


IF YOU ARE ALREADY SUBSCRIBED;
You should receive a notice stating that you are being (re-)subscribed
to the Univel mailing list. You will receive a password which is
required if you want to automatically change any information about your
information in the mailing list. This password may be changed by you.

If you do not receive such a message by mid-August, re-subscribe as
detailed below.

TO SEND A MESSAGE TO THE LIST:
No change, mail it to
univel@telly.on.ca.

Please do *not* send subscription requests to the list anymore, please!


IF YOU ARE RE-SUBSCRIBED AND YOU DON'T WANT TO BE:
There have been a couple of un-subscribe requests, which I have tried to
deal with, but it's possible that some of these requests have slipped
through the cracks and will re-appear on the new subscription list.
If this happens, just un-subscribe using the syntax shown below. My
apologies, it isn't intentional (some people have such short fuses!).


TO SUBSCRIBE/UNSUBSCRIBE/GET HELP/ETC:
Send an appropriate message to any *one* of the following addresses,
each of which is addressed to the list server mechanism at this site
(listed in order of my preference):

listproc@telly.on.ca
univel-request@telly.on.ca
list-request@telly.on.ca
listserv@telly.on.ca

The body of your message should contain one of the following lines
*AS ITS ONLY CONTENT*:

subscribe univel Your_Full_Name      (Not your e-mail address, the system
                                      will pick that up from the headers.)
unsubscribe univel

recipients univel                    (gets a list of subscribers)

help                                 (duh.)

There are a number of facilities this software will make available. There
will definitely be an archiving and newsgroup gateway service soon -- I'm
taking one step at a time. Consensus for the newsgroup name appears to be
biz.univel.misc.

If you try one of the above requests and it doesn't work, try again in a
few days -- it means I'm still bug-exterminating. (The software has been
giving me some installation headaches, without which I'd have finished
this changeover long ago.)

If you are experiencing problems with the new setup, please let me know at
my personal mailbox.

Again, thanks for the patience.
