If you wish to unsubscribe from this mailing list, you can send an E-mail

BODY (a Subject line is not required or needed):

    UNSUB POINT-OF-CARE-L

Your E-mail message should be addressed to:

    ListGuru@fatcity.com    <-- Note EXACT spelling of 'ListGuru'

NOTE: If you only want to *TEMPORARILY* stop receiving postings from this
mailing list, you may want to use the SET NOMAIL command as mentioned below.


5) Commonly used mailing list server commands

The mailing list server software in use at fatcity.com is ListGuru.  ListGuru
accepts most commands from all major mailing list servers, including Listserv,
ListProc, Majordomo, MailBase and SmartList (among others).  All messages to
the mailing list server MUST be addressed to only one address, however:

    ListGuru@fatcity.com    <-- Note EXACT spelling of 'ListGuru'

Mailing list commands must be included in the message body, not the Subject
line.  Commands on the Subject line are ignored.  Multiple commands can be
included in a single message.  You may send as many messages as you wish.

A short description of the most commonly used commands follows.  For a
complete list of all commands available, use the HELP command to obtain more
detailed information.  In all commands below, <list> refers to a name of a
valid mailing list name (for example,   POINT-OF-CARE-L   ).

    Command Format        What it does
    --------------        ---------------------------------------------------
    HELP                  Sends complete ListGuru command information
    LISTS                 Sends a list of all available lists at this site
    UNSUB <list>          Unsubscribes the subscriber from the list
    SET <list> NOMAIL     Temporarily turns off messages to the subscriber
    SET <list> MAIL       Resumes mail flow to the subscriber
    CONFIRM <list>        Confirms a subscription to a particular list
    WHICH                 Shows ALL lists that a user is subscribed to
    SET <list> DIGEST     Turns on DIGEST mode for a list (if available)
    SET <list> NODIGEST   Returns to normal (single message) mode for a list
    INDEX <list>          Lists all available archive files for a list
    END                   Discontinues further command processing (useful if
                          you have long signature sections).

There are more than 50 commands which can be used with ListGuru.  The HELP
command details all commands and their function.  In addition, it specifies
which commands from other mailing list server software may be used.

Note that the two most common mistakes when using mailing list servers are
misspellings of addresses or list names, and posting mailing list server
commands to the list itself (a major no-no).  When in doubt, ask for HELP.
