Managing a Project’s Majordomo Email List
Majordomo is a mailing list manager that lets you subscribe, unsubscribe, show
which lists you are on, etc.
Setting up the Initial Email List
As suggested in
Creating a New Project
on page 2-3, you and the EDA
engineering support coordinator together set up the initial majordomo mailing list.
Using Majordomo Commands
To add yourself to a majordomo list:
1.
Email your request to: [e-mail].
Note:
There is no “o” at the end of “majordom.” The majordomo with three
o
’s controls lists for
all of Bay Networks.
2.
In the body of the message, put your command, for example:
subscribe pcn_
ListToSubscribe
This list will typically be named
pcn_
project
, depending on the project’s
name. For example:
subscribe pcn_mcns.
3.
To unsubscribe, supply your UNIX login, for example:
unsubscribe
user_ID
a.
To determine how your name shows up in a list, use the command:
which
LastNam
with up to seven letters of your last name. The reply may be, for example,
(a)
pcn_asn bhenders
or (b)
pcn_asn Bill_Henderson@bayeast
.
Notice that you may see only a few of your projects if you don’t use as
many letters of your last name as possible.
