I'm not sure how I got on this list, but I'd like to be deleted.  Thanks!

You have been added to the RRGA-L mailing list (RTO West Congestion Model
Content Group) by Keith Dalia <kadalia@BPA.GOV>.

Please save this message for future  reference, especially if this is the
first time you subscribe to an  electronic mailing list. If you ever need
to  leave the  list,  you  will find  the  necessary instructions  below.
Perhaps  more importantly,  saving a  copy of  this message  (and of  all
future subscription notices  from other mailing lists) in  a special mail
folder will give you instant access to the list of mailing lists that you
are subscribed  to. This may  prove very useful the  next time you  go on
vacation and  need to leave  the lists temporarily so  as not to  fill up
your  mailbox while  you  are away!  You should  also  save the  "welcome
messages" from the  list owners that you will  occasionally receive after
subscribing to a new list.

To send  a message to  all the people  currently subscribed to  the list,
just send mail  to RRGA-L@LIST.RTOWEST.ORG. This is  called "sending mail
to the  list", because  you send  mail to a  single address  and LISTSERV
makes  copies  for all  the  people  who  have subscribed.  This  address
(RRGA-L@LIST.RTOWEST.ORG)  is also  called the  "list address".  You must
never try to send any command to that address, as it would be distributed
to all the people  who have subscribed. All commands must  be sent to the
"LISTSERV  address",   LISTSERV@LIST.RTOWEST.ORG.  It   is  very
important to understand  the difference between the  two, but fortunately
it is  not complicated. The  LISTSERV address is  like a FAX  number that
connects you  to a  machine, whereas  the list address  is like  a normal
voice line connecting you to a person. If you make a mistake and dial the
FAX number  when you  wanted to talk  to someone on  the phone,  you will
quickly realize  that you used the  wrong number and call  again. No harm
will have been done. If on the  other hand you accidentally make your FAX
call  someone's  voice  line,  the  person receiving  the  call  will  be
inconvenienced, especially if your FAX then re-dials every 5 minutes. The
fact that  most people  will eventually  connect the  FAX machine  to the
voice line to  allow the FAX to  go through and make the  calls stop does
not mean  that you  should continue  to send FAXes  to the  voice number.
People would just get mad at you.  It works pretty much the same way with
mailing  lists, with  the difference  that  you are  calling hundreds  or
thousands of people  at the same time, and consequently  you can expect a
lot of people to get upset if  you consistently send commands to the list
address.

You may leave the list at any  time by sending a "SIGNOFF RRGA-L" command
to LISTSERV@LIST.RTOWEST.ORG. You can also tell LISTSERV how you
want it to confirm  the receipt of messages you send to  the list. If you
do not trust  the system, send a "SET RRGA-L  REPRO" command and LISTSERV
will send you a  copy of your own messages, so that you  can see that the
message was distributed and did not get damaged on the way. After a while
you  may find  that this  is getting  annoying, especially  if your  mail
program does not  tell you that the  message is from you  when it informs
you that new mail has arrived from  RRGA-L. If you send a "SET RRGA-L ACK
NOREPRO" command, LISTSERV will mail you a short acknowledgement instead,
which  will look  different in  your  mailbox directory.  With most  mail
programs you  will know immediately  that this is an  acknowledgement you
can read  later. Finally,  you can  turn off  acknowledgements completely
with "SET RRGA-L NOACK NOREPRO".

Following  instructions from  the list  owner, your  subscription options
have been set to "NOFILES REPRO" rather than the usual LISTSERV defaults.
For more  information about subscription  options, send a  "QUERY RRGA-L"
command to LISTSERV@LIST.RTOWEST.ORG.

Contributions sent to this list are automatically archived. You can get a
list of the available archive files  by sending an "INDEX RRGA-L" command
to  LISTSERV@LIST.RTOWEST.ORG. You  can then  order these  files
with a "GET RRGA-L LOGxxxx"  command, or using LISTSERV's database search
facilities. Send an  "INFO DATABASE" command for more  information on the
latter.

This  list is  available  in digest  form.  If you  wish  to receive  the
digested version of the postings, just issue a SET RRGA-L DIGEST command.

Please note that  it is presently possible for other  people to determine
that  you are  signed up  to the  list through  the use  of the  "REVIEW"
command,  which  returns   the  e-mail  address  and  name   of  all  the
subscribers. If  you do not  want your name to  be visible, just  issue a
"SET RRGA-L CONCEAL" command.

More  information on  LISTSERV  commands  can be  found  in the  LISTSERV
reference  card, which  you can  retrieve  by sending  an "INFO  REFCARD"
command to LISTSERV@LIST.RTOWEST.ORG.
