CITING E-MAIL
In the list that follows, each discussion group is given a succinct entry.
The template is as follows:
For instance:
Thus, if I was to subscribe to DOMESTIC, , a discussion list about benefits for same-sex spousal equivalents,
| I would mail | subscribe domestic<jyounger@ku.edu> |
| to this address | majordomo-domestic@cs.cmu.edu |
Usually the subscription message is merely
| you would mail | subscribe gaynet |
| to | majordomo@queernet.org |
Upon subscribing to a list you should receive a "Welcome Message" that will describe the list in detail, and spell out areas appropriate for discussion and rules of etiquette.
