These commands can help you obtain desired information from mailing lists.

Which

To find the lists to which your address is subscribed, send this command in the body of a mail message to Majordomo@valpo.edu:

• which

You can look for other addresses, or parts of an address, by specifying the text for which Majordomo should search.  For example:

• which address@my-isp.com
• which my-isp.com

Note that many list owners completely or fully disable the "which" command, considering it a privacy violation.

Who

To get a list of the addresses on a particular list, you may use the who command, followed by the name of the list:

• who listname-l

Note that many list owners allow only a list's subscribers to use the "who" command, or disable it completely, believing it to be a privacy violation.

Index

Many list owners keep archives of files associated with a list.  These may include:

• back issues of the list
• help files, user profiles, and other documents associated with the list
• daily, monthly, or yearly archives for the list

To find out if a list has any files associated with it, use the index command:

• index listname-l

Get

If you see files in which you're interested, you may retrieve them by using the get command folowed by the list name and archive filename. For example:

• get listname-l profile.form
• get listname-l demo-list.9611
