* SETTING A SERVER-LEVEL PASSWORD *<br>
***********************************<br>
<br>
If you do not already have a password for the LISTSERV.SYR.EDU server, we<br>
recommend that you set one now. A LISTSERV password is linked to your<br>
subscribed address (the email address which received this message)<br>
and is valid for all lists to which you are<br>
subscribed on the LISTSERV.SYR.EDU server. The same password can be used<br>
for email commands as well as for access to the web interface for the<br>
lists to which you are subscribed.<br>
<br>
To set your password for this server, visit:<br>
<a href="https://listserv.syr.edu/scripts/wa.exe?GETPW1=">https://listserv.syr.edu/scripts/wa.exe?GETPW1=</a>.<br>
<br>
*****************************************<br>
* INTERACTING WITH LISTSERV VIA THE WWW *<br>
*****************************************<br>
<br>
Subscription settings and preferences can be set using LISTSERV's web<br>
interface. Once you have set a server password as explained above, you<br>
may log in and set your preferences at:<br>
<a href="https://listserv.syr.edu/scripts/wa.exe?SUBED1=NCSG-DISCUSS">https://listserv.syr.edu/scripts/wa.exe?SUBED1=NCSG-DISCUSS</a>.<br>
<br>
Contributions sent to this list are automatically archived. You can<br>
access the list archives at:<br>
<a href="https://listserv.syr.edu/scripts/wa.exe?A0=NCSG-DISCUSS">https://listserv.syr.edu/scripts/wa.exe?A0=NCSG-DISCUSS</a>.<br>
<br>
You may need to log in to view the archives.<br>

**************************************<br>
* INTERACTING WITH LISTSERV BY EMAIL *<br>
**************************************<br>
<br>
You may leave the list at any time by sending a SIGNOFF NCSG-DISCUSS<br>
command to: LISTSERV@LISTSERV.SYR.EDU, or by sending a blank email to:<br>
NCSG-DISCUSS-signoff-request@LISTSERV.SYR.EDU.<br>
<br>
You can also tell LISTSERV how you want it to confirm the receipt of<br>
messages that you send to the list. To send yourself a copy of your own<br>
messages, send a SET NCSG-DISCUSS REPRO command.<br>
<br>
Alternatively, to have LISTSERV send you a short acknowledgement instead<br>
of the entire message, send a SET NCSG-DISCUSS ACK NOREPRO command.<br>
Finally, you can turn off acknowledgements completely with the SET<br>
NCSG-DISCUSS NOACK NOREPRO command.<br>
<br>
This list is available in digest form. If you wish to receive the<br>
digested version of the postings, then issue a SET NCSG-DISCUSS DIGEST<br>
command.<br>
<br>
You can also set the digest delivery option on the list subscription page<br>
at: <a href="https://listserv.syr.edu/scripts/wa.exe?SUBED1=NCSG-DISCUSS">https://listserv.syr.edu/scripts/wa.exe?SUBED1=NCSG-DISCUSS</a>.<br>
<br>
Following instructions from the list owner, your subscription options<br>
have been set to “REPRO” rather than the usual LISTSERV defaults. For<br>
more information about subscription options, send a QUERY NCSG-DISCUSS<br>
command to LISTSERV@LISTSERV.SYR.EDU.<br>
<br>
You may also check your current settings on the list subscription page<br>
