------------------------------ Subject: 1 What address do I use?

To participate  in the  discussion by  sending mail  to the  entire list,
address your mail to CHRISTIA@ASU.EDU.

To send  commands (e.g. UNSUBSCRIBE)  to the listserv  processor, address
your mail to LISTSERV@ASU.EDU

If these  fail, try contacting one  of the kind people  listed in Section
I.6, or the list owner (I.7)

------------------------------ Subject: 2 How do I UNSUBSCRIBE?

To  signoff or  unsubscribe  from  Christia, send  mail  to the  listserv
processor  (section I.1)  containing the  command UNSUB  CHRISTIA on  the
first line.

To subscribe  to Christia, send  mail to the listserv  processor (section
I.1)    containing   the    command   SUB    CHRISTIA   (your.first.name)
(your.last.name) on the first line.


------------------------------ Subject: 3 How do  I control the mail that
is sent to me?

To stop receiving  acknowledgements that your submission  to Christia has
been distributed,  send the  message SET CHRISTIA  noACK to  the listserv
processor.

To receive an  acknowledgement that your submission to  Christia has been
distributed, send the message SET CHRISTIA ACK to the listserv processor.

To receive  a daily compilation  of the posts  on Christia in  one single
email, send the command SET CHRISTIA DIGEST to the listserv processor.

To stop receiving  daily digests, send the command  SET CHRISTIA NODIGEST
to the listserv processor.

To recieve an index of each day's posts on Christia, send the command SET
CHRISTIA INDEX to the listserv processor.

To stop recieving an index and  resume regular mail, send the command SET
CHRISTIA NOINDEX to the listserv processor.

To suspend reception of mail from the list (an alternative to signing off
and then on  again) send the message SET CHRISTIA  NOMAIL to the listserv
processor.

To resume  reception of mail, send  the message SET CHRISTIA  MAIL to the
listserv processor.

------------------------------ Subject: 4 How do I search the archive?

You can go to:

http://lists.asu.edu/archives/christia.html

There used to  be a way to  search the list via e-mail,  but the database
command has not yet been ported to the new environment.

If you want to try anyway (the command may have been ported since I wrote
this), you can do send a message on the following pattern to the listserv
address:

// job  echo=no database search  dd=rules //rules  dd * search  kiefer in
christia since 09-01-2000 index print all

Replace the *** with the word(s) in which you are interested.

It is possible to  limit your search to a specific  time period using the
following modification:

//  job echo=no  database  search dd=rules  //rules dd  *  search ***  in
christia from day1-mon1-year1 to day2-mon2-year2 index print all

But last time I tried it (about 2 minutes ago) it wasn't working yet.

------------------------------ Subject: 5 What is the Christia Library?

A library has  been dedicated for the purpose of  storing large documents
which can be retrieved at the request of members.

To receive a list of the files available, send the command INDEX CHRISTIA
to the listserv processor (Section I.1). Entries look like this:

**  GEN01 RUFF  ALL  CHR V  69  1363 92/03/12  17:49:10  Genesis 1-11  as
theodicy; Three views of Genesis 1 GEN02  RUFF ALL CHR V 68 1106 92/03/12
17:49:16 Darwinism  and sc  ience GEN03  RUFF ALL CHR  V 68  971 92/03/12
17:49:24 Darwinism and Ch ristianity **

To receive, for example, the  article on Darwinism and Christianity, send
the command  GET GEN03  RUFF (syntax:  GET fname  ftype) to  the listserv
processor. (listserv@asu.edu)

Stephen  Kingston  has  made  a  good portion  of  the  Christia  library
available   on   the    World   Wide   Web.   It   can    be   found   at
http://elvis.rowan.edu/~kilroy/CHRISTIA/library

------------------------------ Subject: 6 Can someone please help me?

The following people have indicated that  they are willing to help people
with technical problems that they  are experiencing with Christia. Please
feel free to contact one of them if you need assistance.

Darren   Provine   kilroy@copland.rowan.edu    (listowner)   Tom   Sathre
sathre@ix.netcom.com

{if there is anyone else interested, please  send me a note so that I can
add you to the list}

------------------------------ Subject: 7 Where is the list owner?

Darren Provine  is the listowner  of Christia. He  can be reached  at the
address listed in section 6 above.

------------------------------ Subject: 8 Where's the mail?

There  are  several reasons  why  someone  subscribed to  Christia  isn't
receiving any mail from Christia.

1.  Sometimes, the  list  processor  gets busy,  or  is  down because  of
maintenance at ASU. It will clear up fairly soon.

2.  Sometimes,  _your_ site  has  a  computer  down,  or is  having  mail
problems. This type of problem usually clears up soon as well.

3.  Because of  the  volume  of mail  delivery  problems associated  with
Christia, I have a policy of  removing people's subscriptions if I get an
error  such  as  a "mailbox  full"  or  a  "user  unknown" error.  I  set
subscriptions  to nomail  if I  get  "unable to  connect" error  messages
indicating that mail has been undelivered for more than 2 days.

If you are  not receiving Christia mail, and are  concerned about it, the
first thing to do is send the command QUERY CHRISTIA to listserv@asu.edu.
If the  list processor says that  you are not subscribed,  it is probably
because of  #3 above. You  need to resubscribe. If  it says that  you are
nomail, then  you need  to set  your subscription  back to  mail (Section
I.3).  If you  are subscribed,  and  set to  mail, then  the problems  is
probably #1 or #2 above. If you need some help, contact Darren Provine at
kilroy@copland.rowan.edu for assistance.
