Email Commands

You might prefer to use the Email Interface. Here are the key commands; in all cases, the default Email address is forumname@list.sailjazz.com.

Please note that the "list" in the address someforum@list.sailjazz.com is mandatory for your messages to reach the server.

Other addresses are shown where appropriate. Note: Commands may be placed in either the subject line or in the body of the message.
