One of the users asked me about this and I thought some of you out there
might want to see this as well.

Mailman allows you to temporarily suspend milsurplus messages to your
account while you are away on vacation. When you get back, you can reenable
it.

Instructions:

If you ever want to unsubscribe or change your options (eg, switch to
or from digest mode, change your password, etc.), visit your
subscription page at:

  http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/options/milsurplus/myemailaddress.com

Where 'myemailaddress.com' is the address that milsurplus sends your emails
to.

For example if your email address is w4xyz@hamcall.net:

http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/options/milsurplus/w4xyz@hamcall.net

Then scroll down the page to:

Disable mail delivery
Turn this �on� if you want mail to not be delivered to you for a little
while.
O Off  O On

Then enter your user password at the bottom of the screen.
(Your password is sent to you as a reminder once each month. The message
subject is 'mailman.qth.net mailing list memberships reminder'. )

Once you do this, it should respond back with a screen that tells you it was
updated.
Hit the back button if you want to review your change to make sure.


Here are all of the options you can set:

Disable mail delivery
 Turn this on if you want mail to not be delivered to you for a little
while.
     Off  On

Set Digest Mode
 If you turn digest mode on, you'll get posts bundled together once a day,
instead singly when they're sent. If digest mode is
 changed from on to off, you will receive one last digest.
     Off  On

Get MIME or Plain Text Digests?
 If you have any problems with MIME digests, select plain text.
     MIME  Plain Text

Receive posts you send to the list?
     Yes  No

Receive acknowledgement mail when you send mail to the list?
     No  Yes


Try that and see what happens.
