SET       MSOD-L  options        Update your subscription options

bulletSET   MSOD-L   DIGest/NODIGest  -- controls if you receive digest form of  MSOD-L
bulletSET   MSOD-L  INDex/NOINDex  -- controls if you receive index form of  MSOD-L
bulletSET   MSOD-L  MAIL/NOMAIL  -- disables or restores mail from   MSOD-L

DIGESTS  ---

There is a Digest form of this list (as there are for most LISTSERV lists).
The SET MSOD-L DIGEST command causes the subscriber to receive one e-mail per digest cycle (daily unless no messages are received) with all the messsages received by the list during that cycle in it rather than the individual messages as they are processed by LISTSERV.

You set your Subscription for MSOD-L to digest mode by sending a message to the Server

    LISTSERV@msod.pepperdine.edu

   in the body of the e-mail send the following:

     SET MSOD-L DIGEST

---- its that simple .... and to cancel the digest mode ???

     SET MSOD-L  NODIGEST


SET  INDex/NOINDex
--------------------
Causes the subscriber to receive one posting per digest cycle containing
only an index of subject topics for all messages during that cycle -- you
have to request individual messages ... obviously for the more digitally
adventurous.


SET  MAIL/NOMAIL
------------------
controls whether messages should be delivered, ( like when you go on
vacation or your e-mail has been disconnected and don't want the mail )


the  DIGEST/INDEX/NODIGEST/NOINDEX option  controls  the format in which
messages should be delivered.

- DIGEST: enable digest delivery mode (which negates INDEX), enable mail
  delivery.

- INDEX: enable index delivery mode (which negates DIGEST), enable mail
  delivery.

- NOMAIL: disable mail delivery.

- MAIL: restore mail delivery, without altering the digest/index/normal
  delivery setting
