Notes

1. The addresses toltbbs.com and tbbs.net are interchangeable.

2. SUBSCRIBE and ADD are accepted synonyms for JOIN.

3. UNSUBSCRIBE, REMOVE, and DELETE are accepted synonyms for LEAVE.

4. The command HELP may be sent to retrieve a summary of commands.

5. You may put a command, such as JOIN, in the message body of the e-mail instead of in the subject. A reason for doing this would be to submit multiple commands. The format would be:

JOIN tpcug myname@mycomputer.mydomain
