Kidlink Subscription Settings

Get all postings immediately Regular is the default setting, i.e., this is what you get if you don't do anything. Mark it off to have all messages sent to you as soon as they appear on the mailing lists.

Stop the postings for a while You want messages to stop for a while, maybe because you're going on holiday. Mark off "Mail delivery disabled temporarily."
Suggestion: You may forget your subscription. Consider the "Leave the list" option instead.

Send all postings in one long daily email The Digest option reduces the volume of email without reducing contents. It may also help you manage the flow of messages better. It is great when your electronic mail service does not allow you to receive as many messages per day as are appearing on this list. .

Send digests in a more readable format If you are using a html-enabled email reader, try set your subscription to html (or mime). Do not select MIME or HTML if your email program cannot handle such mails. On the other hand, it is OK to experiment.

INDEX If receiving email is expensive, you use a cellular phone for mail, or you just want to have a general idea about what goes on, then you may find the Index option useful. Click here for an example.
INDEX is a daily list of the messages that appeared on any given mailing list in the preceding 24 hours.
You can retrieve individual messages from the list by sending a simple email command to the Listserv. This is a fast and elegant way to participate without being swamped by a mass of messages that may not be relevant to you.

Just a glance now and again Your interest is lower than what even Digest can deliver. Maybe you should not subscribe at all? Instead, leave the list, and click here whenever you have time to browse the list's action.

Sending from another email account. You receive the messages on one of your email accounts, and would like to be able to send mail to the list from another. Set your second account to "Mail delivery disabled temporarily" to avoid receiving all messages in duplicate.

Your email server deletes the header of all messages. In this case, when you get a message, it will show where it is from (for example, from KIDCAFE-QUERY), but it will not show who actually sent it to the list. Select "Dual" to solve the problem. A second header will be included in the body of the mail.

Anytime, you can return to the standard setting again!
