It is important to remember that commands are posted in the first line
of your message, and not in the subject field (you can leave it blank).
Some of the common commands are SUBSCRIBE, UNSUBSCRIBE,HELP, INFO, LIST,
WHICH, WHO, INDEX, GET, and END. Remember to turn off your signature when
sending commands.
Use these lists wisely- please avoid unrelated traffic, advertisments, and
personal messages!!
The "LISTS GLOBAL" command can be used with Listservs. Sending this
message to a Listserv will instruct the Listserv to send you a list of all
the discussion groups that it is aware of in the world.
Remember to send this command to the Listserv, and not to the discussion
group. Thus you could send the message "LISTS GLOBAL" to
LISTSERV@AMERICAN.EDU Be prepared for some large responses, as there are
thousands of discussion groups in the world. You could then perform a
search for keywords.
Another place to get information on listservs on all topics is the WWW site:
