Now the holidays are with us in earnest a quick reminder of how to stop your mailbox filling up with things from the TCUG list while you are sipping something cool and soaking up the sun. You need to set yourself in "vacation mode", you can do this in two ways: Send an e-mail to tcug-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with 'vacation xx' (without the quotes) in the Subject field. This will suspend messages for xx days, or, if you leave out xx, for a default two weeks - you can catch up when you return by looking at the archives at //www.freelists.org/archives/tcug/. Alternatively, log on to the Freelists website at //www.freelists.org/login.html You will have to go through an authorisation procedure if it is your first time - basically they send you an e-mail with a code in it which you return to them to prove who you are, it only takes a couple of minutes. You can then select the tcug list. Click on "Change Settings" and then tick the "Vacation" box to suspend messages, untick it when you return to resume. Finally, please remember to send your messages from the same e-mail address that you subscribed with. Several people have had e-mail address changes recently, this is fine for receiving messages - the IT people usually redirect messages addressed to your old address onto your new one, you probably don't even notice the change. Unfortunately Freelists doesn't know about this when you send a message from your new address, you don't appear as a member so it rejects your message. The answer is to unsubscribe from your old address and resubscribe with your new one. If you have already lost access to yur old address contact me and I will sort it out.
