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="node9.html#sec:web">3.1</a> for instructions.) +</li> +<li>Go down to the section marked "Mail delivery" and select "Disabled" + to stop receiving mail, and "Enabled" to start receiving mail. +</li> +</ol> + +<p> +This can also be changed for multiple lists at the same time if you are subscribed to +more than one list on the same domain. 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. (See + Section <a href="node10.html#sec:email">3.2</a> for more information about sending mail + commands.) +</li> +<li>Set it to "off" to stop receiving posts, and "on" to start + receiving them again. +</li> +</ol> + +<p> + +<div class="navigation"> +<div class='online-navigation'> +<p></p><hr /> +<table align="center" width="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="2"> +<tr> +<td class='online-navigation'><a rel="prev" title="7 changing mail delivery" + href="node19.html"><img src='previous.png' + border='0' height='32' alt='Previous Page' width='32' /></a></td> +<td class='online-navigation'><a rel="parent" title="7 changing mail delivery" + href="node19.html"><img src='up.png' + border='0' height='32' alt='Up one Level' width='32' /></a></td> +<td class='online-navigation'><a rel="next" title="7.2 how can I" + href="node21.html"><img src='next.png' + border='0' height='32' alt='Next Page' width='32' /></a></td> +<td align="center" width="100%">GNU Mailman - List Member Manual</td> +<td class='online-navigation'><a rel="contents" title="Table of Contents" + href="contents.html"><img src='contents.png' + border='0' height='32' alt='Contents' width='32' /></a></td> +<td class='online-navigation'><img src='blank.png' + border='0' height='32' alt='' width='32' /></td> +<td class='online-navigation'><img src='blank.png' + border='0' height='32' alt='' width='32' /></td> +</tr></table> +<div class='online-navigation'> +<b class="navlabel">Previous:</b> +<a class="sectref" rel="prev" href="node19.html">7 Changing mail delivery</a> +<b class="navlabel">Up:</b> +<a class="sectref" rel="parent" href="node19.html">7 Changing mail delivery</a> +<b class="navlabel">Next:</b> +<a class="sectref" rel="next" href="node21.html">7.2 How can I</a> +</div> +</div> +<hr /> +<span class="release-info">Release 2.1, documentation updated on December 5, 2007.</span> +</div> +<!--End of Navigation Panel--> + +</body> +</html> |
