If the amount of messages are getting too much then simply switch to
the 'digest' version of the salon. This will allow you to receive
posts from the salon as a single large subject-indexed message, about
once a day. You can then simply read the contents list at the top of
each digest message to decide whether you wish to read the posts
(tip: search repeatedly for 'Subject:' to scan through the messages
quickly).
To change to digest membership simply send the message:
set film-philosophy digest
to: [log in to unmask]
There are three kinds of digest: normal, mime, and html.
In normal, email formating codes are passed straight through rather
than processed. In mime and html they are converted into the
formating the sender created (e.g. bold, green font).
Members who send their original 'join' command using a mime- or
html-compliant email program *should* have this option set
automatically (most would be html).
If you are receiving messages repeated in gobbledegook code, then
switch to either mime or html, depending on what your email software
can support.
To check and change your digest setting, go to:
http://www.jiscmail.ac.uk/lists/film-philosophy.html
click on 'Join or leave the list (or change settings)'. and follow
the instructions
The digest is sent out around 6pm UK time.
If you have problems unsubscribing, or sending messages generally,
then do not ask for help via the salon, but simply email the editor
at: [log in to unmask]
