2- Go to the bottom of the page, and where it says
"To unsubscribe from permaculture, get a password reminder, or change
your subscription options enter your subscription email address:"
go ahead and enter the email address you use for this list
3- Click on the "Subscribe or edit options" button
This takes you to the member options page.
If you don't remember your password,
Click on the "remind" button in the Password Reminder section.
4- Wait a minute, open up your email, and the password should be there.
(Sometimes takes longer, mine took one second just now).
5- Once you have your password, enter it in the password box and click
on the
"Log in" button.
Your personalized membership configuration page will open up.
On this page, you can
- unsubscribe
- set digest mode
- disable mail delivery (good for when you go on vacation. You can see
what you missed in the archives section)
- and do a few other things
6- You can now proceed to set digest mode, or whatever you want to do.
Unfortunately, Mailman, the free open source software which is used for
this list, and many other progressive mailing lists, is a bit clunky. It
is designed by geeks for geeks, and contains some type one errors, in my
opinion.
That said, it's free, unlike many other easier to use email software
options. Also, once you DO take a few minutes to figure out how this
works, things are much easier.
