I have copied below details of the monthly advice I receive from the
system in use by our local museums site: CAN (collectionsaustralia.net )
I suggest that perhaps such a reminder might well be adopted by the
organisers of this list. It would be a useful for those on the list who
may want to change their requirements, say, when they are about to go on
leave, and have lost or forgotten the procedures.

Museums in the making
This is a reminder, sent out once a month, about your
collectionsaustralia.net mailing list memberships. It includes your
subscription info and how to use it to change it or unsubscribe from a
list.
You can visit the URLs to change your membership status or
configuration, including unsubscribing, setting digest-style delivery
or disabling delivery altogether (e.g., for a vacation), and so on.
In addition to the URL interfaces, you can also use email to make such
changes. For more info, send a message to the '-request' address of
the list (for example, [log in to unmask])
containing just the word 'help' in the message body, and an email
message will be sent to you with instructions.
If you have questions, problems, comments, etc, send them to
[log in to unmask] Thanks!
Your majobs Subscription Options
/*Current values are checked.*/
Note that some of the options have a /Set globally/ checkbox.
Checking this field will cause the changes to be made to every
mailing list that you are a member of on collectionsaustralia.net.
Click on /List my other subscriptions/ above to see which other
mailing lists you are subscribed to.
Mail delivery
Set this option to /Enabled/ to receive messages posted to this
mailing list. Set it to /Disabled/ if you want to stay subscribed,
but don't want mail delivered to you for a while (e.g. you're going
on vacation). If you disable mail delivery, don't forget to
re-enable it when you come back; it will not be automatically
re-enabled.
Enabled
Disabled
/Set globally/
Set Digest Mode
If you turn digest mode on, you'll get posts bundled together
(usually one per day but possibly more on busy lists), instead of
singly when they're sent. If digest mode is changed from on to off,
you may receive one last digest.

On
Get MIME or Plain Text Digests?
Your mail reader may or may not support MIME digests. In general
MIME digests are preferred, but if you have a problem reading them,
select plain text digests.

Receive your own posts to the list?
Ordinarily, you will get a copy of every message you post to the
list. If you don't want to receive this copy, set this option to /No/.
No
Yes
Receive acknowledgement mail when you send mail to the list?
No
Yes
Get password reminder email for this list?
Once a month, you will get an email containing a password reminder
for every list at this host to which you are subscribed. You can
turn this off on a per-list basis by selecting /No/ for this option.
If you turn off password reminders for all the lists you are
subscribed to, no reminder email will be sent to you.
No
Yes
/Set globally/
Conceal yourself from subscriber list?
When someone views the list membership, your email address is
normally shown (in an obscured fashion to thwart spam harvesters).
If you do not want your email address to show up on this membership
roster at all, select /Yes/ for this option.
No

Which topic categories would you like to subscribe to?
By selecting one or more topics, you can filter the traffic on the
mailing list, so as to receive only a subset of the messages. If a
message matches one of your selected topics, then you will get the
message, otherwise you will not.
If a message does not match any topic, the delivery rule depends on
the setting of the option below. If you do not select any topics of
interest, you will get all the messages sent to the mailing list.
/No topics defined/
Do you want to receive messages that do not match any topic filter?
This option only takes effect if you've subscribed to at least one
topic above. It describes what the default delivery rule is for
messages that don't match any topic filter. Selecting /No/ says that
if the message does not match any topic filters, then you won't get
the message, while selecting /Yes/ says to delivery such
non-matching messages to you.
If no topics of interest are selected above, then you will receive
every message sent to the mailing list.
No
Yes
Avoid duplicate copies of messages?
When you are listed explicitly in the To: or Cc: headers of a list
message, you can opt to not receive another copy from the mailing
list. Select /Yes/ to avoid receiving copies from the mailing list;
select /No/ to receive copies.
If the list has member personalized messages enabled, and you elect
to receive copies, every copy will have a X-Mailman-Copy: yes header
added to it.
No
Yes
