This document will help you change your e-mail discussion group settings. The information provided is for subscribers of e-mail discussion groups hosted by The Resource Center. For assistance with other groups, contact their administrator.

Settings

The e-mail discussion groups have a number of features that you may want to use:

  • Edit your name or e-mail address.
  • Set your membership type:
    • Normal: receive messages as they are contributed
    • Digest: one daily email with all the messages for that day
    • Mime digest: one daily email with that day's messages in MIME format
    • Index: one daily email with only the subject lines for that day
  • No email: receive no email from this mailing list. Good for when you are out of the office or on vacation.
  • See your own postings.
  • Apply changes to each e-mail discussion group or all e-mail discussion groups you belong to.

Steps

Follow these steps to change your settings via the website:

  1. Go to the website at: http://lists.etr.org/read/ which will take you to the All Forums page.
  2. Choose the e-mail discussion group you would like to alter from the list provided by clicking the name of the list, such as NSSCTalk. (Click the show more > button to see the whole list.)
  3. Some e-mail discussion groups will require you to log-in at this point. (Log-in to your account with your e-mail (and password if you have one). Click OK.)
  4. In the upper right corner, you can now see the forum (or e-mail discussion group area) that you are in.
  5. Click on the My Account tab, and if you haven't been prompted to do so thus far, you will be asked to supply your e-mail (and password). Click OK.
  6. Under the Essentials tab and the Advanced tab make the appropriate changes.
  7. Click the save changes button.

Questions

If you have any problems, e-mail the administrator at steves@etr.org. Please do not post your questions to the entire list.
