Welcome to the b-greek mailing list!

If you ever want to remove yourself from this mailing list, you can send mail to "Majordomo@virginia.EDU" with the following command in the body of your email message:

unsubscribe b-greek grammateus@sunsite.unc.edu

Here's the general information for the list you've subscribed to, in case you don't already have it:

[Last updated on: Tue Sep 6 13:36:28 GMT 1994] Subject: LIST CHANGE: B-GREEK (Biblical Greek Studies) Conference (formerly NT-GREEK)

B-GREEK on MAJORDOMO@VIRGINIA.EDU

B-GREEK (Biblical Greek Studies) Conference

Contents of this information message: 1. Description of the List 2. How to subscribe 3. Where to send commands and messages 4. Please do not "reply" to messages from the list 5. Majordomo list server commands 6. Getting off of the list <== PLEASE NOTE 7. Acknowledgements

1. DESCRIPTION OF THE LIST

B-GREEK is an electronic conference designed to foster communication concerning the scholarly study of the Greek Bible. Anyone interested in New Testament Studies is invited to subscribe, but the list will assume at least a working knowledge of Biblical Greek. Those interested in learning to study the Bible more personally and less exclusively academic should join the BIBLE list

Subscription to this conference is open to anyone interested.

2. HOW TO SUBSCRIBE

You may subscribe by sending an e-mail message to

MAJORDOMO@VIRGINIA.EDU

with the following request as the text of the message.

SUBSCRIBE B-GREEK

If you want to subscribe to only a digested version of the list, then give the command

SUBSCRIBE B-GREEK-DIGEST

You can be subscribed to both the immediate version and the digested version of the list at the same time.

This, the 'SUBSCRIBE ...,' must be part of the message; the subject line will be ignored. If you must request a subscription to a different address than your own return address you can give the command: SUBSCRIBE B-GREEK <address> but this requires operator intervention, and is therefore *not* appreciated.

3. WHERE TO SEND COMMANDS AND MESSAGES

Remember two simple rules-of-thumb:

If it's a command (SUBSCRIBE, UNSUBSCRIBE), send it to the list requester: MAJORDOMO@VIRGINIA.EDU

If it's a message for general distribution to the members of the list, send it to the list: B-GREEK@VIRGINIA.EDU

4. PLEASE DO NOT "REPLY" TO MESSAGES FROM THE LIST

Also, Please DO NOT USE THE REPLY function on your email's software when replying to the entire list. Half of the software out there replies only to the original sender, and half of it replies to the list owner! NONE of it will send a message to the list as a whole, so don't use your software's reply function!

5. MAJORDOMO LIST SERVER COMMANDS

Here are some additional MajorDomo listserver commands: HELP Retrieve the automated help message INFO <listname> Retrieve the general introductory message for the named list LISTS Show all the lists served by this Majordomo server END Stop processing commands - it is a good idea to put this command as the last command for any message to Majordomo WHO <listname> Show the members of the named list

6. GETTING OFF OF THE LIST

If you wish to get off the list follow these instructions: (You don't need to send both the B-GREEK and the B-GREEK-DIGEST versions unless you are subscribed to both.)

Try sending the following message to majordomo@virginia.edu

UNSUBSCRIBE B-GREEK UNSUBSCRIBE B-GREEK-DIGEST END

If this does not work, you are probably subscribed under and address which is different than your return address. send the following command to majordomo@virginia.edu

WHO B-GREEK WHO B-GREEK-DIGEST END

Find which address is yours, and then send the following command to majordomo@virginia.edu

UNSUBSCRIBE B-GREEK <address> UNSUBSCRIBE B-GREEK-DIGEST <address> END

As a last resort, contact me at djm5g@virginia.edu, but there isn't anything that I can do other than what is listed here which you can do.
