You will need to try and remove yourself using all known aliases for your email address. If you still cannot find the right address, try reading an email from the discussion list in full header mode on your email client. In full header mode, there will most likely be a "Delivered-to:" line in the header that shows the address as it is subscribed on the list.
To send a message to a list send an email message to the address of ;
listserv@discussions.eq.edu.au
where listname is the name of the list you are subscribed to. The message will then be sent by listserv to all members of the discussion list.
From the email address you do not wish to receive email from the list to, send an email to ;
listserv@discussions.eq.edu.au
with a message of
SET listname NOMAIL
Where listname is the name of the list you are subscribed to, this will prevent mail from being delivered to this address but still allow it to send messages to the list.
You may be sending email from another address or from a different email alias. Listserv treats different email aliases as completely separate email addresses. If you have an email address of username@domain which you are subscribed under and try to send a message to the list from your alias of firstname.lastname@domain listserv treats these as separate addresses. You will either need to change your subscription address to the address you are trying to send from (this should be revealed in an email message you receive back from listserv) or if you use both addresses both will have to be subscribed to the list to allow you to post from either. You can prevent extra copies of messages being delivered to you as a result of more than one address being subscribed to a list.
To change your subscription options to only receive a digest of the messages sent to a list (you will no longer receive messages as they are posted but will receive an email containing all messages posted in a given period, daily, weekly, monthly depending on how the list is setup) send an email to the address of ;
listserv@discussions.eq.edu.au
with a message of ;
SET listname DIGEST
Where listname is the name of the list you are subscribed under. Please note : not all lists may have a digest available, if unsure please contact the list owner to confirm.
The listowner of a list can be contacted by sending an email to the address of ;
listname-request@discussions.eq.edu.au
where listname is the name of the list you wish to query.
