Mailing List

SkullSpace.ca uses mailman to manage our lists. Currently, we have a single list - general - where all activity takes place. If any new lists are created in the future, we will post information here and also to the general mailing list.

Subscribing

To subscribe to the mailing list, send an email to the following address: general-subscribe@lists.skullspace.ca

It will respond, asking you to confirm. Simply send a reply to the confirmation email to join.

Alternatively, send an email to the following address: general-request@lists.skullspace.ca

With the subject line:

subscribe [password] [digest|nodigest]

Obviously, you shouldn't use a secure password for this, since it's being sent through email.

Posting

To post to the list, provided you're subscribed, email general@lists.skullspace.ca.

Unsubscribing

To unsubscribe, send an email to general-request@lists.skullspace.ca

With the subject "unsubscribe"

Other commands

All commands are sent to general-request@lists.skullspace.ca with the command and arguments in the email body. Multiple commands can be sent, provided they're set one per line. The following commands can be used:

Body	Notes
help	Returns a list of commands and how to use them
info	Get info about the mailing list
password [<old password&gtl; <new password>]	Retrieve or change your password.
nodigest]	Subscribe to the list. Optionally set a password and digest/no digest mode.
unsubscribe [password]	Unsubscribe from the list. If no password is given, emails for confirmation.
set	todo

Additionally, the 'set' command can change a variety of settings. Often, 'set' requests require your password, which can be obtained using the 'password' command. Typically, the body of a 'set' email will look like this:

set authenticate <password> set <option1> <value1> set <option2> <value2><br\>...
