Justin, this is what I think is the most straightforward way of turning
vacation mode on and off.
To turn vacation mode on, send an E-mail to
access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
leaving the subject line blank. In the body of the message type
set vacation
and, hey presto, you will stop receiving messages from the list.
To turn vacation mode back off, send an E-mail to
access-uk-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
leaving the subject line blank. In the body of the message type
unset vacation
and you will start receiving messages again.
Hope this helps.
Christopher
