Frequently Asked Questions
If you ever want to remove yourself from this mailing
list, you can send mail to <
unsubscribe
or from another account,
besides your@email.address:
unsubscribe
If you ever need to get in
contact with the owner of the list,(if you have trouble unsubscribing, or have
questions about the list itself) send email to
<owner-houston@killercomputing.com> .This is the general rule for most
mailing lists when you need to contact a human.
We have started a Mailing
List for the Houston Area Magicians. The
list is to allow easy communication between the area magicians that have access
to email.
In case you have never been
part of a mailing list before, I will attempt to explain what a list is and how
you use it.
A mailing list is made up of
a list of people that are all interested in the same subject, or interest. Many of you that have email are familiar with
copying a single mail message to many people at the same time.
There are a couple of
problems with this. First of all the
person sending the mail has probably setup an 'alias' that contains all the
entries. If they haven't, then every
time you want to send a piece of mail to their 'list of friends', they have to
remember who was on the list. This is a
problem, because when I do that I usually forget a couple of names. The next problem is that if another person
wants to send a piece of mail to the same list, that person has to create an
'alias' as well. Before you know it, you
have a number of people each with a different version of the list, and none of
the lists are quite the same as any of the others.
This is where the Mailing
List comes in. With the Mailing List,
there is just one address to send mail.
The people on the list have the ability to unsubscribe themselves
if/when they are no longer interested.
No one really has to remember who is on the list. Just send a message to the list and all the
people that want the message will receive it.
There are some other
features of a Mailing List. You can find
out who is on the list, but only if you are a member of the list.
The Houston Area List has
just a few rules:
1. The topics discussed here
should be of the following types:
Magic Activities
Magic in general:
Sleights
Ideas
Questions
...
Announcements for the following:
Upcoming Events that concern the Club
Who is working where
Possible Bookings
...
2. Commercial messages are
not allowed.
That is pretty much it for
the rules. If things get out of hand,
more rules may need to be enforced. I
really don't want to enforce anymore.
Seems the more restrictive a thing is the less people use it.
The next question is
"How do I use the list?"
The answer is pretty
simple. Pick you favorite mail client
and send a piece of mail to the following address:
If you are not sure whether
or not you are subscribed to the list, the list will tell you. Your message will be bounced back to you if
you are not subscribed.
In case you need to
subscribe to the Houston Area Magicians Mailing List, do the following:
1. Use the address
"houston-request@houstonmagic.com"
2. Put the following in the body of the message
subscribe
If for some reason you no
longer wish to receive mail from the list do the following:
1. Use the address
"houston-request@houstonmagic.com"
2. Put the following in the body of the message
unsubscribe
There are number of things
you commands that you can send the Mailing List. These commands can show you
who is on the list, what your current setting are, and a number of other
things. To find out what commands you
can send to the list. Do the following:
1. Use the address
"houston-request@houstonmagic.com"
2. Put the following in the body of the message
help
There may be some time when
you need to talk to the list administrator. The address to use is:
"houston-owner@houstonmagic.com"
The address directly above
is directed to Scott Wells.
Comments and suggestions are
always welcome.
