We
maintain an e-mail list through Yahoo Groups that serves as a means
to announce our meetings, social events and political activities
to it's subscribers. The list also serves as a means for subscribers
to converse on political topics and to announce events not directly
associated with the Young Republican Federation of San Diego in
which our members may be interested. All are welcome to subscribe
to our e-mail list.
|
How do I subscribe to the e-mail list?
|
Send an email to yrfsd-subscribe@yahoogroups.com
from your e-mail program.
OR
|
|
How do I post a message to the group?
|
Send your message to yrfsd@yahoogroups.com.
Our list is moderated for appropriate content. This means
not every message will be sent to our subscribers. We wish
to maintain a focused list that does not send useless and
trivial e-mail to our subscribers. Only subscribers to the
list can post messages.
|
|
How do I reply to someone else's posting?
|
Choose Reply to send a response to the entire e-mail
list. If you only want to send your reply to the author,
reply to the author's e-mail address (normally included in
the posted message). If their e-mail address is not in the
posted message, then e-mail the list moderator at yrfsd-owner@yahoogroups.com
asking that the reply be forwarded to the author of the
message only.
|
|
Is my e-mail address kept private?
|
Yes, only the moderator of the e-mail list can view the
subscribers' e-mail addresses. As well, we do not make these
addresses available to any other group or individual.
|
|
How do I unsubscribe from the e-mail list?
|
Send an email to yrfsd-unsubscribe@yahoogroups.com
from your e-mail program. If you have a problem removing
your address, then e-mail the moderator directly at
yrfsd-owner@yahoogroups.com
and ask to be removed from the list.
|
|
What if I'm getting too much e-mail?
Is the list available in a digest?
|
A daily digest is available, which means you will receive
one e-mail per day with all postings for that day. If you
want to receive a daily digest, the easiest way to do this
is to e-mail the moderator at yrfsd-owner@yahoogroups.com
with this request. The moderator will change your
account status to a daily digest for you.
You can also do this yourself if you have converted your
account by associating the e-mail address you used to
subscribe with to a Yahoo ID. To do this, click on the
Conversion Wizard link at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/yrfsd.
Once you have converted your account, click the Sign In link
and you will have access to the web interface of our Yahoo
Group list. You will see a new Edit My Membership link where
you can choose to set your account to a daily digest. In
fact, you can set your account to No E-mail and just choose
to view the e-mails like a message board via your web
browser (see the following question). You still will be able
to post messages setting your account to No E-mail.
|
|
Can I view a history of posted messages?
|
Yes, you can. Once you have converted your account (per
the question above), you now have the ability to view all
messages and replies posted to our list at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/yrfsd.
Click on the Messages link.
|
|
I like getting individual messages, but I don't like
how they clutter my Inbox. Can I do something about
this?
|
Yes you can. In most modern e-mail programs you can set
up a mail rule where your e-mail program automatically files
your e-mail into a specific folder. Since all e-mail posted
to the Young Republican Federation of San Diego e-mail list
contain YRFSD in the subject, you can set up your mail rule
to file all e-mail with this text in the subject into a
specific folder in your e-mail program. The e-mails from our
list will no longer show up in your Inbox, but rather be
filed into this folder immediately upon receipt.
