Subject:message format... From:UC Bobby Collins <ucbcolli -at- SYSTEMA -dot- WESTARK -dot- EDU> Date:Wed, 3 Apr 1996 08:29:00 -0600
I have just signed onto this list, and I find that I am receiveing
messages in digest form. However, I can not see in my instruction file
how to ask for regular messages. Does anyone know how to change
defaults?
I am keeping a notebook/style book of materials from
this and other writing lists. The digest format makes it a
cut-and-paste process to keep the articles that I can use and discard
items I've no need of.
Might as well introduce myself now...Bobby Collins, freelance
techwriter aborning (just last week got my first ad agency client,
meeting with the next one today). Employed fulltime for a university
as a techwriter/assistant administrator. Looking to move into
fulltime writing.
Thanks for the help,
