Hi Helen One quick check - did you leave a space either side of the asterisk in your SET * MAIL email? It doesn't work if you don't (as I have found when I did it wrong myself). If that didn't work you should pop a note to JISCmail themselves to let them know, as it should work for every subscriber. A quick solution for you though is to go to www.jiscmail.ac.uk, go to Subscriber's Corner (using your login details from when you first signed up to your first list - if you can't remember, enter the email address your mailing lists get sent to and click to have your password sent to you) and choose the My Settings tab and you will see a Mail Status header - if everything is still showing NoMail go to the bottom and change it to Mail. If it is actually showing Mail for all lists then the SET * MAIL email you sent did actually work and something else has gone awry - contact JISCmail if this is the case. You can also use that My Settings page to decide whether you want live 'Regular' messages or end-of-the-day Digests.

I did that, and I THOUGHT I'd set it to send me mail again on my return, but no, so I've been in limbo ever since! Do I have to go back and start again??

Hi All It's so easy to do! You send an email just before you switch on your Out of Office reply to [log in to unmask] that simply reads in the body SET * NOMAIL (nothing in the subject line and nothing else in the body text), then when you return to work and have switched off your Out of Office reply you send another to the same address reading SET * MAIL. In the period you are away, your normal emails will come through and get the Out of Office response, while discussion lists will not be delivered and will therefore not receive your Out of Office response. You can then hop onto the JISCmail website when you return to catch up on any discussions you may have missed while you were away. Hope this is helpful!

Good is out of the office. I don't question that Anne B. Good is a good, respectable colleague in the field, even though I don't know her personally (and only "know" her via her automated messages!) But I think some people on this list are trying to say that her automated "vacation" messages do become a little irksome, particularly for more active list members who may see several of these automated messages every time she is out of town. And this has been recurring, or so I believe, for years. I suggest that the listowners for Disability-Research explore whether there might be a way to set up a filter so that certain types of automated messages (perhaps based on a common string of words that are often used in automated messages but not in "live" messages) are automatically routed to a list moderator for review before being passed on to the list. That way the moderator can pass it along (if the filter caught it in error) or else quietly delete it (if it is another "out of town" message, regardless of who "sent" the message). Or, if a technical solution is not feasible on the side of the listserv, then perhaps some of the colleagues who know her could gently suggest to Anne B. Good that, when she is out of town, she might want to consider either 1. playing with her automated message settings (perhaps there is a way to set it so that some email addresses receive the alert but other addresses, such as the listservs she is on, do not? depending how sophisticated her system is) 2. or, if she cannot figure out an approach to filtering who receives her automated messages, then she might wish to consider altering her settings on this list to "nomail" or equivalent when she is out of town, then she can catch up on the archives when she returns.
