Date: Sat, 28 Sep 1996 16:00:10 -0600 From: Hans Ehrbar <ehrbar-AT-marx.econ.utah.edu> Subject: How to unsubscr*be from the bhaskar list etc. Hi Carrol, you can get the past messages by mail sending the commands get bhaskar current get bhaskar recent to majordomo-AT-jefferson.village.Virginia.EDU. Here is an information message with other information: Here is an occasional reminder of the commands how to unsubscr*be, how to subscr*be, how to use the "who" command which shows who is subscr*bed, and how to access the archives by mail, www, and ftp. To unsubscribe from the bhaskar list, send the one-line message: unsubscribe bhaskar to: majordomo-AT-jefferson.village.virginia.EDU The "unsubscribe" command must be in the body of the message, the subject header of the message is irrelevant. Unsubscriptions are automatic unless you send your request from a different e-mail address than the one at which you are subscribed. Those requests will first go to the "list-owner" for approval, which may take a day or two. To subscribe to the bhaskar-list, send the one-line message: subscribe bhaskar to: majordomo-AT-jefferson.village.virginia.EDU Again, the subscribe command must be in the body of the message, the subject header of the message is irrelevant. Subscription is also automatic unless you use an address that the majordomo software does not recognize, or you are already subscribed at another address, in which case the request will be forwarded to the "list-owner" for approval. Due to the low volume of the list, a digest option for the bhaskar list is not provided at the present time. To get a list of all subscribers, send a message consisting of the line who bhaskar to: majordomo-AT-jefferson.village.virginia.EDU To get a list of the archive files, send a message consisting of the line: index bhaskar to: majordomo-AT-jefferson.village.virginia.EDU You will get a list of files which can be retrieved by the "get" command. One of the files is called "rts"; it contains the present installment of the readings of the Realist Theory of Science. Here is the example of a get command which retrieves a an archive file which has messages sent out before July 26, 1996, 2:49 GMT (you will receive a mail message of about 360 Kilobytes long): get bhaskar bhaskar_1996/96-07-26.024 Again, this command must be sent in a mail message to: majordomo-AT-jefferson.village.virginia.EDU To receive a survey of all majordomo commands, send a message consisting of the line help to that same address. The www-URL of the spoon collective is http://jefferson.village.virginia.EDU/~spoons To retrieve the archives of the bhaskar list by ftp, you have to ftp jefferson.village.virginia.EDU log in as user "anonymous", and then cd pub/pubs/listservs/spoons/bhaskar.archive The latest messages are in a file named "current" in this directory. Somewhat older messages are in a file named "recent" in the same directory. To get the archive files proper, you have to cd to one of the annual directories, say bhaskar_1996 . The names of the archive files themselves are made up by the date of the *last* message they contain. There are also index files available. Hans Ehrbar
