Hi,
Sorry to take up your time, but when I access the web interface at:
http://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/lists/vle.html
after having set a password, when I try to access the different pages, I get
the message
"Sorry, you are not authorized to manage the VLE list from the address you
entered in the login screen."
This sounds like it doesn't recognise my Email address, although I've had
an Email telling me that I'm now a member. Help please!

at:

> http://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/lists/vle.html
>
> Once in, choose "Join or leave the JISCmail list (or change settings)" and
> then under Subscription type, choose "Digest (traditional)"
>
> If this is the first time you've ever done this, you'll have to choose a

>
> If, having tried to do it yourself first, email me OFF THE LIST, at

> subject line always starts with [VLES] - you can use this to filter the
> emails.
>
> 4. You can unsubscribe (though I don't necessarily recommend this!).
> Details on how to do this are appended to the end of every list email - if
> you look at this, you'll see that you don't send an email to the list
> asking to unsubscribe, because all that happens is that it goes to all the
> list. You send it to the same address you used to subscribe, i.e.
> [log in to unmask]
>
> Hope this all helps - but, most important, the volume will decrease after
> the initial excitement (if that's the right word) of a new list.
>
> Incidentally, the list has 180 members, achieved in two days.
