Two Versions to Choose From
TXMEDINA-L is for individual messages to be delivered to your e-mail
address. As each subscriber to the list sends messages to the list
address, you will receive a copy of the message. To subscribe send an
e-mail message to: TXMEDINA-L-request@rootsweb.com
with one word in the body of the message: subscribe
TXMEDINA-D is for a digest of several accumulated messages to be
delivered to your email address. As each subscriber to the list sends
messages to the list address, they are put into a digest to be delivered
later. The digest is generated approximately once a day and delivered to
digest subscribers. This option is handy for people who don't want
multiple messages to accumulate in their mail box. To subscribe send an
email message to: TXMEDINA-D-request@rootsweb.com
with one word in the body of the message: subscribe
Sending Commands to Smartlist &
Rootsweb
To subscribe, unsubscribe or make other changes to your mailing list
subscription, you will send "commands" to the computer & the SmartList
software on RootsWeb.
TXMEDINA-L-request@rootsweb.com (for
individual messages)
TXMEDINA-D-request@rootsweb.com (for
a digest of multiple messages)
To manage your subscription, send an e-mail message to the address
above and use any of the following commands, typed within the body of your
e-mail message. Type ONLY one of the commands as it is shown below. Do not
add any extra words or lines of text:
Do NOT use a signature file attached to the e-mail message. The
software reads your message and tries to answer each command it finds.
When it runs across your signature file it gets a bit confused and will
send you a message stating something like 'Do not recognize command
'Jones'. Do not recognize command "Smith", etc.
