However, lately there has been a great >volume of messages, that fill my message box....... One simple solution to this problem is already avalable - the digest mode. If asked the listserver will stop sending you every message instantly but save them up and send them as a single "digest" message once a day instead (with the unambiguous header PALEONET digest). This mode saves most of the problems associated with the sheer volume of paleonet mail. Also to date I have never had the blank header problem when using the digest mode, but that may just be because the listserver likes the NHM for some reason. Jeremy Young To change to digest mode... send the following message set paleonet mail digest to listproc@ucmp1.Berkeley.EDU N.B. Other useful commands you can send to the listserver include unsubscribe paleonet ----------------- To remove yourself from the list. recipients paleonet ----------------- Returns a listing of all non-concealed people subscribed to the list. help ----------------- Returns a message with information on available commands. ________________________________________________ Dr. Jeremy R.
