Chief Black Dog (GO!) E-Mail List Server

As a trial, I have brought up a list server, CDB-Cub-L, as a discussion forum for our District’s leaders.  Subscribe to this forum and you will receive copies of all e-mails posted to it.  Have a request or an idea to share with the CDB forum?  Just send your e-mail to CDB-Cub-L@charter.net and it will get distributed to all members.

How To Subscribe

Just send an e-mail to CDB-Cub-L@charter.net with “SUBSCRIBE” (do not include quotes) as the subject.  Nothing is required in the body of the e-mail.

Fine Points

Currently, the list is restricted to 50 individuals. When we hit this limit, it will be bumped up to 100.  Unfortunately, my ISP will not let me go beyond 100.

The e-mail distribution runs once an hour. If the volume picks up, I’ll have it run more frequently.

If the subject of your message is anything other than one of the 
above commands, the message is forwarded to everyone who has 
subscribed to the mailing list.

A digest is a single MIME-encoded message containing the contents of 
all the messages posted to the mailing list during the digest period. 
If you send the DIGEST-xx command to the list, you will no longer 
receive individual messages.  Instead you will receive digest 
messages at the specified interval. To resume receiving individual 
messages, send the DIGEST-OFF command.
