A word about MAILMODE:
With mailmode you can choose the way all the messages are sent to you:
- If you have set your mailmode to ACK, then the listserver,
will send each single mail to you a soon as it arives at the
listserver. So you get each message sent to the list as one single mail.
- NoACK is just the same as Ack with the diffence that
mails you send to the list are not send back to you. They
are - of course - sent to all other subscribers.
- Digest means that you get all messages of one day sent to you in *one*
mail with the subject "%%listname_short%% DIGEST xyz". This is the default setting. It keeps
your email traffic low (since you get only one mail per day from the list)
but makes it harder to follow threads.
- If you change you mailmode to Postpone no mails will be sent to you,
until you change it again. This is usefull when you go on holiday and want not to
get "bombed" by the mails sent from the list during your absence. If you want
to cancel your membership for what reason ever and do not want to get any further
mails from the list then please signoff and do not set your settings to postpone.
A word about CONCEALED:
If you set this to Yes, your email address won't appear on any of the
subscribers listings. This makes it very hard for you to find out your accountname
if you forgot it since it will not be listed anywhere. So No is the default setting.
