To those who want to leave this e-mail list,

all and just circulate your e-mail to everyone on this list.

Read the following message which you'd received when you subscribed.

Subject: You are now subscribed to the EVIDENCE-BASED-HEALTH list


Fri, 15 Jun 2007 16:55:27

Your  subscription  to  the EVIDENCE-BASED-HEALTH  list  (Evidence  based
health (EBH)) has been accepted.

Please save this message for future  reference, especially if this is the
first time you are subscribing to an electronic mailing list. If you ever
need to leave  the list, you will find the  necessary instructions below.
Perhaps  more importantly,  saving a  copy of  this message  (and of  all
future subscription notices  from other mailing lists) in  a special mail
folder will give you instant access to the list of mailing lists that you
are subscribed  to. This may  prove very useful the  next time you  go on
vacation and  need to leave  the lists temporarily so  as not to  fill up
your  mailbox while  you  are away!  You should  also  save the  "welcome
messages" from the  list owners that you will  occasionally receive after
subscribing to a new list.

To send  a message to  all the people  currently subscribed to  the list,
just send  mail to  [log in to unmask] This  is called
"sending mail to the list," because you send mail to a single address and
LISTSERV  makes copies  for  all  the people  who  have subscribed.  This
address ([log in to unmask])  is also called  the "list
address." You must never  try to send any command to  that address, as it
would be distributed to all the  people who have subscribed. All commands
must be  sent to the  "LISTSERV address," [log in to unmask]  It is
very  important  to  understand  the  difference  between  the  two,  but
fortunately it  is not complicated.  The LISTSERV  address is like  a FAX
number that connects you to a machine, whereas the list address is like a
normal voice line connecting  you to a person. If you  make a mistake and
dial the FAX number when you wanted  to talk to someone on the phone, you
will quickly  realize that you used  the wrong number and  call again. No
harm will have been done. If on the other hand you accidentally make your
FAX call  someone's voice  line, the  person receiving  the call  will be
inconvenienced, especially if your FAX then re-dials every 5 minutes. The
fact that  most people  will eventually  connect the  FAX machine  to the
voice line to  allow the FAX to  go through and make the  calls stop does
not mean  that you  should continue  to send FAXes  to the  voice number.
People would just get mad at you.  It works pretty much the same way with
mailing  lists, with  the difference  that  you are  calling hundreds  or
thousands of people  at the same time, and consequently  you can expect a
lot of people to get upset if  you consistently send commands to the list
address.

You   may  leave   the  list   at  any   time  by   sending  a   "SIGNOFF
EVIDENCE-BASED-HEALTH" command  to [log in to unmask] You  can also
tell LISTSERV how you want it to confirm the receipt of messages you send
to  the   list.  If   you  do   not  trust  the   system,  send   a  "SET
EVIDENCE-BASED-HEALTH REPRO" command and LISTSERV will send you a copy of
your own messages,  so that you can see that  the message was distributed
and did not get damaged on the way.  After a while you may find that this
is getting  annoying, especially if your  mail program does not  tell you
that  the message  is from  you when  it informs  you that  new mail  has
arrived    from   EVIDENCE-BASED-HEALTH.    If    you    send   a    "SET
EVIDENCE-BASED-HEALTH  ACK NOREPRO"  command,  LISTSERV will  mail you  a
short acknowledgement instead, which will  look different in your mailbox
directory. With most mail programs you will know immediately that this is
an  acknowledgement  you  can  read  later. Finally,  you  can  turn  off
acknowledgements   completely  with   "SET  EVIDENCE-BASED-HEALTH   NOACK
NOREPRO".

Contributions sent to this list are automatically archived. You can get a
list   of   the   available   archive  files   by   sending   an   "INDEX
EVIDENCE-BASED-HEALTH" command  to [log in to unmask] You  can then
order these files with a  "GET EVIDENCE-BASED-HEALTH LOGxxxx" command, or
using  LISTSERV's database  search  facilities. Send  an "INFO  DATABASE"
command for more information on the latter.

This  list is  available  in digest  form.  If you  wish  to receive  the
digested version of the postings,  just issue a SET EVIDENCE-BASED-HEALTH
DIGEST command.

Please note that  it is presently possible for other  people to determine
that  you are  signed up  to the  list through  the use  of the  "REVIEW"
command,  which  returns   the  e-mail  address  and  name   of  all  the
subscribers. If  you do not  want your name to  be visible, just  issue a
"SET EVIDENCE-BASED-HEALTH CONCEAL" command.

More  information on  LISTSERV  commands  can be  found  in the  LISTSERV
reference  card, which  you can  retrieve  by sending  an "INFO  REFCARD"
command to [log in to unmask]
