Malaria discussion mail server
I have established a malaria discussion mailing list over the Internet.
This will provide a forum for anyone wishing to ask, preach or communicate
on the general subject of malaria. At last count there were about 828
recipients, many of which I had unilaterally joined up myself, and several
interesting discussions have been held. I would like to join up more
people if I can get their e-mail addresses.
It is run on majordomo at The Walter and Eliza Hall Institute of Medical
Research and can be accessed by anyone with an e-mail address. To join,
you send a subscription message which places your name on a list of mail
recipients. If you later send a mail
message to the discussion group, it will automatically be sent to all the
people who have subscribed. As more people subscribe your message will
reach a wider audience, increasing your chances of spreading your message
or getting your questions answered.
Subscribing to the malaria discussion group.
Send an e-mail to majordomo@wehi.edu.au .
In the body of the mail message, you need only type the single line.
subscribe malaria
You could optionally put your e-mail address after the word malaria
otherwise the list will use the e-mail address attached to your message.
Stopping your subscription to the discussion group.
If you decide you no longer want to receive malaria
messages, send an e-mail to majordomo@wehi.edu.au

Looking at previous discussions.
Malaria discussion search form.
This search returns all messages to the malaria discussion group,
that contain the search string.
Search string: xxx and yyy - returns all messages containing both
xxx and yyy.
Can use multiple 'and's.
Search string: xxx or yyy - returns all messages containing either
xxx or yyy.
Can use multiple 'or's.
Any attempt to use the 'or' operator with the 'and' operator will
result in the 'or' being considered as part of the search string
(so it is not advised).
A log of all previous messages on the majordomo can be
accessed at the malaria anonymous ftp site in the
malaria archives.
If you are having problems with the list, such as not receiving
messages, look here to see if there is an answer. Otherwise
drop me a line
and ask for help.
Look here to find help on various options supported by the list
software and the proper command syntax.
