For example, you could be +going on vacation or need a break from the list because you're too busy to +read any extra mail. +Many mailing lists also allow only subscribers to post to the list, so if you +commonly send mail from more than one address (eg, one address for at home +and another for when you're travelling), you may want to have more than +one subscribed account, but have only one of them actually receive mail. +You can also use this as a way to read private archives even on a list which +may be too busy for you to have sent directly to your mailbox. All you need to do is subscribe, disable mail delivery, and use your password and email to +log in to the archives. + +<P> +To disable/enable mail delivery using the web interface: + +<OL> +<LI>Log in to your options page.

See Section <A HREF="node34.html#sec:global">10.1</A> for +information about changing settings globally. + +<P> +To disable/enable mail delivery using the email interface: + +<OL> +<LI>Send a mail to <span class="email">LISTNAME-request@DOMAIN</span> with the command + <var>set delivery off</var> or <var>set delivery on</var>. + +<P> +Commands can appear + in either the body or the subject of the message.
