If this is to be a list for newbies, I have to wonder if anyone is on it! I have tried a dozen times to get subscribed. I got the help message, as suggested, and it is as clear as mud, as it gives no examples, and is as cryptic as the return mail. Is this list worth the effort? Anyone give the precise syntax this non-standard subscription requires? Thanks, Gary P.S. I did write to a human yesterday--no answer. Yes, I tried a space, - and |, but nothing pleases this program.
