Mail Addresses

Mail Lists

Internet Shopper runs mail lists so that you can be notified of new information available on its server. They all operate via an NTMAIL list server at list@net-shopper.co.uk. To subscribe to a mail list, send a mail to the mail server with a body that says "join mail_list_name" and to unsubscribe write to "leave mail_list_name". You will receive a mail message confirming that you have been added or removed from the appropriate list.

Mail Lists

The following mail lists are available:

Mail Server Commands

A quick summary of the mail server commands...

JOIN

Subscribe to the mail list. The mail server will read the message you have sent to work out your mail adress. It will only add this mail address to the mail list if it does not already exist (there's nothing worse than repeating the same message). For example JOIN NTMAIL-UPDATE will add you to the mail list called "UPDATE".

LEAVE

This command will remove you from a mail list. The mail server will find your mail address from your mail message and remove that address from the mail list. For example LEAVE NTMAIL-UPDATE will remove your name from the mail list.

HELP

This command will tell the mail server to send you a copy of the information you are reading now! If you enter HELP followed by a list name, you will receive information about the list itself along with how to leave the list.
