I am getting more error messages and bouncing mail from non-SPORRS members'
posts and SPORRS members' incorrectly sent server commands quite frequently
again, so there are two mail problems we need to try to solve:

Please don't send a message (post) to the SPORRS list while also sending to
other e-mail addresses at the same time.  The SPORRS address is only for
SPORRS members to post their messages to the list with, and when a
non-member tries to send mail to it (like on a reply to one of these posts
that they got too, or they are just curious what the address is), each one
bounces back to me as a non-member submission.  Also, I am trying to avoid
spreading the SPORRS posting address around to cut down on SPAM.  I already
get some SPAM that is sent to the SPORRS list, because it is also bounced
back to my mailbox as non-member submissions.  If it gets out of hand, I
will have to change the list address (or delete it), and to me, that's a
lot of work for nothing.

Also, if you wish to unsubscribe from the SPORRS list for any reason,
either temporarily for a period such as a vacation or spring break, or
permanently, you need to send the correct server command to the correct
address.  All of this information is in the SPORRS Info file which you were
sent when you first  subscribed to the SPORRS list.  It was suggested that
you keep that copy of that file for reference.  If you no longer have that
mail or print-out, or you want the latest updated version of that file, the
SPORRS Info File is also on the SPORRS web site.  All of the directions for
subscribing and unsubscribing to the SPORRS list are in this file, and that
info is near the top.  I have the list subscription process set up as
automated, so you can unsubscribe yourselves, or send a subscription
request in yourself, so I can approve it.  I will not unsubscribe you
manually.  It's much easier for you to do this yourself the way I have the
program set up.  

If you do not have internet access and you want to get the latest copy of
the SPORRS Info File, then you need to send a message to:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] with the only words in the body of your message as:

info sporrs

If you have anything else in the body of your message when you send the
above command, like a signature or your E-mail address, then the server
will not process it correctly, and it will most likely bounce back to me as
an error message.

Please pay attention to the list operating rules to keep this list
operating smoothly for everyone.  I have no interest in running this thing
only to get a mailbox full of error messages and bounced mail every day.

Thank You.
