-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is the monthly "How To" file about the Domesteading list.
It has info on content and purpose of the list, as well as subscription
info, posting instructions, etc. It should prove useful to new subscribers,
as well as those who are unfamiliar with SmartList Mailing List operations.
This message is being posted on Sat Mar 1 00:00:02 PST 2003.
If you are tired of receiving this message once per month, you can
set up a filter to delete the message. This trick is WELL worth learning
how to do, if you don't know already. Most mail programs nowadays have some
sort of filtering capability built in. If yours doesn't, you may want to
consider upgrading to something that does.
And isn't it about time to learn something new? Isn't it always? :-)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Domesteading is a forum for the discussion of aspects of
independent, off-the-grid living. Topics range from geodesic domes to world
hunger; autonoumous housing, power systems, composting toilets, and a little
bit of everything in between. :-)
On topic discussion and questions are welcome. SPAM and unsolicited
promotions are not. (Simple, eh?)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

You may want to save this file to forward on to people who are
interested, as it tells what the list is about, and how to subscribe and
unsubscribe.
You should definitely keep a copy for yourself. It's useful to have
a folder just for list subscription information, so you know how to remove
yourself from a list when your interest shifts elsewhere.
Chances are very good that requests for unsubscription will not be
seen for up to a week or more. Take responsibilty for yourself, or you may
end up waiting 2 weeks for the next posting of this how-to message. :-)
