Holiday Reminder: Postponing from the list



Many people who go on vacation set their E-mail address to auto reply in order to notify senders that they are away.  That is fine to do if you have postponed your E-mail list subscriptions.  If you have not postponed your E-mail list subscriptions, every time a message is sent to the list there is a response that you are on vacation or out of the office.  Even if you do not use auto-reply, you may want to postpone receipt of messages until you return.  One consequence of not postponing your E-mail is that your electronic mailbox (at your post office or on your machine) may become full causing problems with incoming mail.  (This is likely only if you receive a lot of E-mail daily or you are away for a very long time.)  This E-mail describes how to postpone your CHILD-MALTREATMENT-RESEARCH-L subscription so that you will not be sent postings while you are away.

Before leaving:
Send a message to listproc@cornell.edu from the E-mail address that is subscribed to the list.
Leave the subject header blank and use the following command in the body of the message:

set CHILD-MALTREATMENT-RESEARCH-L mail POSTPONE

To receive postings again:
Send a message to listproc@cornell.edu from the E-mail address that is subscribed to the list.
Leave the subject header blank and use the following command in the body of the message:

set CHILD-MALTREATMENT-RESEARCH-L mail ACK
