Engineering Technology Listserv Page

Turn off HTML Formatting (for certain operations):

When joining the listserv, unsubscribing from the listserv, viewing the current member list or limiting the message delivery interval you will need to turn off the HTML formatting option in your email package. Failure to do so will result in the following error message:

Unrecognized Request "THIS".

This does not apply to messages posted to the list at ETD-L@listproc.tamu.edu -- only to commands sent to listproc@listproc.tamu.edu.

Join the Listserv (turn off html formatting):

Send a message (leave subject field blank) to listproc@listproc.tamu.edu with message body:

SUBSCRIBE ETD-L your_first_name your_last_name

Posting a Message on the ETD Mailing List:

Send your message to etd-l@listproc.tamu.edu.

If you have an attached file, I would encourage you to paste it into your e-message, as some server software may not be able to decode it, and you can avoid the chance of a virus. Also, as noted above, when you send a question to the Listserv, please encourage responses to yourself only, and then you can summarize them to the entire Listserv. This will help in cutting down on Listserv traffic.

View Current Members of the Listserv (turn off html formatting):

E-mail addresses of members are alphabetized from right to left. This is so that institutional e-mail domains will be in order.

Limit Message Delivery to Once a Week (turn off html formatting):

If you feel the frequency of messages on the Engineering Technology Listserv is too high for your taste, there is a feature called "Digest" that allows you to get your messages only once a week and have them listed by title. If you would like this feature, send a message (leave subject field blank) to listproc@listproc.tamu.edu with message body:

SET ETD-L MAIL DIGEST
