Important About Our Old Newsletters!

Over the years, commands used to retrieve information from the LISTSERV archives have changed. Please note these changes:

GET - Most old information pages referred to in the newsletters are still available, but the command must now be used differently. The major difference is that there must now be a period (.) between the file directory name and the file name. Example:
GET KIDS-91 TIPS. You must now use GET KIDS-91.TIPS
The KIDLEADR directory is now called KIDLEADER.
/SHIP - this command has been replaced by the GETPOST command.
To retrieve individual messages or get additional help, send email to LISTSERV@LISTSERV.NODAK.EDU with commands like these as the message TEXT:
GETPOST RESPONSE 3 5 7 (to get messages numbered 3, 5, and 7) GET KIDLINK.INDXHP (to get index help file)
(Note: the previous /SHIP command has been phased out. Item ranges, like 6-9, will no longer work. List each message you want: 6 7 8 9 )
The Kidlink gopher is no longer operational!
Expect many, many electronic mail addresses to have changed!
