This article is from the Drum corps FAQ, by Cathy Doser cathyd@halcyon.com with numerous contributions by others.
A Drumcorps-Digest mailing list was created by Mark Baushke
(mdb@cisco.com) to allow people without access to UseNet to receive a daily
digest of articles that appear in the newsgroups alt.drumcorps,
alt.colorguard, rec.arts.marching.drumcorps and rec.arts.marching.colorguard,
as well as being able to post articles via e-mail to those same newsgroups.
Be advised that Drumcorps-Digest is a MajorDomo@cisco.com controlled
mailing list. If you wish to subscribe (receive) Drumcorps-Digest messages,
you may send a message to MajorDomo@cisco.com with a line
subscribe drumcorps-digest
in the body of the message. If you wish to unsubscribe from the list
send a message to MajorDomo@cisco.com with a line
unsubscribe drumcorps-digest
Other administrative requests, such to have your address changed,
should be directed to drumcorps-digest-owner@cisco.com.
In addition, an address has been created which will post email sent
to it to rec.arts.marching.drumcorps. This address is:
rec-arts-marching-drumcorps@cisco.com . There is also an e-mail address for
rec.arts.marching.colorguard. This address is:
rec-arts-marching-colorguard@cisco.com .
Remember that all administrative requests should be sent to
drumcorps-digest-owner@cisco.com, NOT to rec-arts-marching-drumcorps@cisco.com.
Any replies you wish to make to newsgroup postings you read in
the digest can be made simply by sending e-mail to the appropriate address.
The digest software runs an NNTP reader client once per day which will read
all previously unread articles in the group and package them as a single
e-mail message. If there are no new articles, or the news machine is
down, then you will not get any articles that day. If you have not seen a
digest in more than three days, you might want to send e-mail to the
administrivia address to have Mark look into any problems.
