Chapter 4: Using the Internet to Communicate

Email List Assignment

You need to sign up for the email list known as Sales for this assignment. Use your email program to send email to: Include the word - subscribe i-sales - as the only word in the body of your message. After some time has gone by, you will receive a confirmation message. You must reply to this message to be subscribed to the list. After a bit more time, you will start to receive the list in digest form. This means that the day's conversation will be put in a single piece of email to you.

This email list is moderated, meaning that an individual, John Audette, decides what will appear in the digest. More information can be found at the I-Sales Web page. It is possible to subscribe via the Web page, but you ordinarily can not do so from a lab computer.

The assignment is to report on one of the conversations or threads.


Don't forget to Unsubscribe from the list at the end of the semester.
