 2. How do I subscribe my email address from alumni@ccfcaa.org?

To subscribe to alumni@ccfcaa.org, send an (empty) message to alumni-subscribe@ccfcaa.org. System will send a confirmation request back to you. To confirm your subscription, just reply to the ``Reply-To:'' address. Usually, the ``reply'' function of your mail program will do this. When system receives your confirmation, it will add your address to the subscriber database and send you a message to tell you that you are a subscriber.

The confirmation is used so that only you (and the list administrator) can add/remove your address from the list of subscribers.


 3. How do I unsubscribe my email address from alumni@ccfcaa.org?

To unsubscribe from alumni@ccfcaa.org just send a message to alumni-unsubscribe@example.org , then reply to the confirmation request. System will send you a message to let you know that you are no longer a subscriber. System will also let you know if the address was not in the subscriber list. If so, you are probably subscribed under another address. When this happens, construct an unsubscribe request that contains your subscription address.

If you for some reason are not successful with these attempts you can as a last resort contact alumni-owner@ccfcaa.org . Please describe your problem and include a FORWARDED message from the list and a list of the possible addresses you might be subscribed under. The list owner will be able to help you get off the list, and can usually figure out your subscription address from the information sent.

 8. How do I send message to mailing list?

To send messages to a mailing list, you must know its name. If the list is called mandarin@ccfcaa.org , just send a message to mandarin@ccfcaa.org . Any message accepted at this address is sent to all list subscribers.

Due to the efficiency of the system, you usually get back the message you sent to the list within a few minutes. Of course, this is true only if you are a subscriber.

All of mailing lists require that you specify a ``Subject'', a few words that give everyone an idea what your message is about. This is a good thing, since many subscribers automatically delete mailing list messages without subject. Conversely, a good subject causes those interested/able to help with your comment/problem to read the message. If you send a message without a subject, system will send it back to you with an error message.

 9. How do I reply to email from a mailing list?

Messages sent via a mailing list come ``From:'' the original sender. For many lists, it is appropriate to discuss privately with the original sender, then post a follow-up message with e.g. a solution to the list. In this case, just ``Reply'' to the sender. Without this behavior two things may happen: First, a subscriber may intend to reply to the original sender only, but sends a message to the entire list. This can be very embarrassing. Second, misconfigured subscriber programs sometimes send ``David is on vacation'' messages back to the ``From:'' address. The system setup allows these to go to the original sender (a minor nuisance) rather than to the list (a major nuisance with the potential for mail loops if the subscriber software is severely misconfigured).

In other cases, you may want to send the reply to all subscribers. The easiest is to type in the list address by hand or to use the ``Reply-to-all'' function of your mail reader. If you do this, delete your address as well as the original sender's address so that the message goes to the list only. Since messages reach subscribers within minutes, it is usually superfluous and sometimes annoying to also send a reply directly to the sender as well.
