Ever since putting the "mailto:" on the web pages for my lists, I've
received clueless email. Now I've removed the mailto from my main
pages and replaced them with a link to a page that explains the
function of a mailing list, the difference between administrative
addresses and list addresses, and "NO, you are NOT writing
to Rod Stewart by clicking here!!" ;-)
At the bottom of the tutorial, are "mailto:" commands.
Hope it works.
Good. I suspect you may need to instruct readers to make a bookmark
pointing to this sign-on/sign-off page before offering them a sign-on
mailto:, to make this approach mostly successful.
c.f. this .sig that I have composed but failed to get implemented on
Lynx-dev:
>>-- This message is coming to you from the Lynx-dev discussion list. --<<
http://www.cc.ukans.edu/about_lynx/lynx-dev/about_lynx-dev.html --for info
mailto:listproc@listproc.cc.ukans.edu --for list administration
>>-- UNSUB LYNX-DEV gets you off the list, HELP gets instructions. --<<
The page you get to by the "for info" reference contains fully spelled
commands but not clickable subscribe/unsubscribe actions.
