You can set vacation mode and other things by performing the following:

Use the below email address for the server:

           thin-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx

TO GET A LIST OF LISTS:
        Send a message to the the server with a subject
        of "lists".  A list of lists hosted by the server will be returned
        to you.

TO SUBSCRIBE TO A LIST:

        Send a message to the server In the subject field, enter "subscribe 
thin".
Or, you can
       send a message to "thin-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx"
        with a subject of "subscribe".

TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM A LIST:
        Send a message to server.  Enter "unsubscribe thin" in the
        subject field.  You can also send a message to
        "thin-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx" with a subject of "unsubscribe".
        While you should NOT send your unsubscribe command to the list
        itself, Ecartis will attempt to trap such erroneous postings and
        forward them to the list administrators for proper handling.

TO GET A DIGEST EVERY DAY:
        Send a message to the server with a subject
        of "set thin digest".  This will turn on digests, and you
        will receive a digest however often the server is configured to
        send them.

TO STOP GETTING A DIGEST:
        Send a message to the server with a subject
        of "unset thin digest".  This will turn off digest mode, and
        instead you will receive an eMail every time something is posted
        to the list.

TO GET A DIGEST AND NORMAL POSTS:
        Send a message to the server with a subject
        of "set thin digest2".  This will activate digest mode with
        normal posting.  As each message is posted to the list it will be
        sent to you, and you will receive a digest as well.  This flag
        should be used INSTEAD of digest, NOT IN ADDITION TO.
        To stop receiving digests in addition to normal posts, send a
        message to the server with a subject of "unset thin
        digest2".  You will go back to receiving normal posts.


TO GO ON VACATION:
        Send a message to the  server with a subject
        of "set thin vacation".  You will remain subscribed to the
        list but will not receive any eMail as long as this flag is set.
        To come back from vacation, eMail the ecartis account with a
        subject of "unset [listname] vacation".

TO CHECK ON YOUR OWN STATUS:
        Send a message to the server with a subject
        of "stats thin".  You will get a list of all the flags
        currently set on your account.

TO GET A LIST OF FLAGS AVAILABLE:
        Send a message to the  server with a subject
        of "flags".  An eMail will be sent to you with the available flags
        that you can set on your account.

TO GET A LIST OF COMMANDS AVAILABLE:
        Send a message to the  server with a subject
        of "commands".  An eMail will be sent to you with all the commands
        that the server and any installed modules offer.
