Thank you for agreeing to moderate the yate@voip.null.ro
mailing list.

My commands are a little different from other mailing lists,
but I think you will find them intuitive and easy to use.

Here are some instructions for the tasks you may have to perform
as a list-owner and/or moderator.

Remote subscription
-------------------
As a moderator, you can subscribe and unsubscribe any address to
the mailing list. To subscribe "john@host.domain", simply put
a hyphen after the command word, then his address with '=' instead
of the '@'. For instance, to subscribe that address, send mail to:
   <yate-subscribe-john=host.domain@voip.null.ro>

You can similarly remove the address by sending a message to:
   <yate-unsubscribe-john=host.domain@voip.null.ro>

For the digest list:
   <yate-digest-subscribe-john=host.domain@voip.null.ro>
   <yate-digest-unsubscribe-john=host.domain@voip.null.ro>

That's all. No subject and no message body needed!

I will send a confirmation request to the user address, in this
case <john@host.domain>. All the user has to do is to reply to 
this confirmation request message.

The confirmations are necessary to make it extremely hard
for a third party to add or remove an address to the list.

I will notify the user when his/her subscriber status
has changed.

Subscription
------------

Any user can subscribe or unsubscribe by sending mail to:

yate-subscribe@voip.null.ro
yate-unsubscribe@voip.null.ro

For the digest list:

yate-digest-subscribe@voip.null.ro
yate-digest-unsubscribe@voip.null.ro

The user will receive a confirmation request to make
sure s/he controls the subscription address. Once this
is verified the user is unsubscribed.

Subscriptions work the same way.

The user can also use:

   <yate-subscribe-mary=host.domain@voip.null.ro>
   <yate-unsubscribe-mary=host.domain@voip.null.ro>

to have mail sent to "mary@host.domain". Only if she receives mail
at this address will she receive the confirmation request and be
able to reply to it.

Your address and identity will not be revealed to the subscriber,
unless you send mail directly to the user.


Vacations
---------
If you are temporarily at a different address, just forward all messages
that have the correct 'Mailing-List:' header (or all that have subjects
starting with 'MODERATE for yate@voip.null.ro'
or 'CONFIRM subscribe to yate@voip.null.ro') to the
new address. You can then moderate from the new address. Alternatively,
you can forward the messages to a friend so that s/he can moderate
for you. Please OK this with the list owner first.

If you would like to automatically approve all requests while you
are gone, set up you mail client to auto-reply to messages that
have subjects meeting the above criteria.


Good luck!

PS: Please contact the list owner (yate-owner@voip.null.ro) if you
have any questions or problems.
