Note that this sample is for a subscribe-by-owner list: settings for your list may differ. Instructions in 'Listserv basics' sections apply to all lists, however.

Listserv discussion list LISTNAME has been established as requested.
The list owner addresses are:
 
       owner1@arches.uga.edu ( Primary Owner ) 
       owner2@coe.uga.edu    ( Co-Owner )              
 
The first listed owner is considered the primary owner,
and receives messages from Listserv concerning the list.

Listserv basics for listowners and subscribers:

> Listserv commands via email, such as subscription management requests,
	are sent to the *server* address,
    listserv@listserv.uga.edu

> Posting to the list:
	To send mail to the list (ie, to all list subscribers), send 
	the message to the *list* address,
	LISTNAME@listserv.uga.edu .

	See the settings above for who is authorized to post to this list.

---------------------------------------------------------------------
Basic Listserv commands for listowners:

>  NEW: check out managing your list on the web at
	
	www.listserv.uga.edu
   
   You will need to get a listserv password (good for any lists
   you manage or are subscribed to on UGA's server).  Then go
   to the Manage page, where you can perform all the functions
   described below very quickly and easily.

>  List owners are not automatically subscribed to their list.
	They must subscribe (or be added) in order to receive list postings.

> to add someone to the list, send the Listserv command:
    add listname userid@node 
 
    for example:
    add LISTNAME tilde@arches.uga.edu Arethusa M. Tilde
 
> to delete someone from the list, send the Listserv command:
    delete listname userid@node
 
    for example:
    delete LISTNAME tilde@arches.uga.edu
 
> to review your list headers and subscribers, send the Listserv command:

    review LISTNAME
 
> Listserv command notes:
  -- You may include multiple commands in a mail message.
 
  -- the QUIET option (ie, QUIET ADD or QUIET DELETE) supresses
  notification messages to the user you're adding or deleting.
 
  -- if you append a signature block to your e-mail, Listserv will
  attempt to find valid commands there, and complain when it doesn't.
  To avoid this,
    -- turn off signature block, or
    -- follow your last command with a line containing only two dashes:
    this is a signal to Listserv not to process any remaining text.
 
> Notes on errors:
  If mail to a subscriber becomes undeliverable (which can happen for many
  reasons, and be a temporary or permanent problem), Listserv will, by
  default, 'auto-delete' subscribers for which the errors conform to standard
  formats, and which seem to be permanent.  You will receive a summary report
  of these actions.  Subscriber error messages that Listserv can't decipher
  will be sent individually to the primary listowner, who will have to
  delete the subscriber.
