Command: subscribe/unsubscribe - staying in contact with Nemesis Description: Nemesis offers some mailing lists. These are our lists: nemesis@nemesis.de for all interested in Nemesis. events@nemesis.de for planning RL events like the VCFe. wizards@nemesis.de for Nemesis' wizards only. Before you can 'subscribe' (and hopefully not 'unsubscribe' later) to the lists in every post office in Nemesis (also in the Nemesis Information Centre east of the church or in the Adventurers' Guild), you have to validate your email address stored in Nemesis - see also 'help mailaddr'. This is our "Double opt-in" (DOI) - see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opt-in_email . 'subscribe' without argument shows the available mailing lists and which you have subscribed to with which email address. Wizards don't have to go to a post office, the Information Centre or the Adventurers' Guild. They can subscribe everywhere. Syntax: subscribe subscribe unsubscribe Examples: subscribe nemesis subscribe nemesis@nemesis.de unsubscribe nemesis unsubscribe nemesis@nemesis.de Note: When subscribing (or unsubscribing) to the mailing list you can name the list by its complete mail address, e.g. "nemesis@nemesis.de" or by the local part "nemesis". If you change your address stored in Nemesis via 'set mailaddr' (and validate it), the mail addresses subscribed to mailing lists are NOT changed. Simply type 'subscribe ' to re-subscribe with your new mail address. No, this is not a bug! It IS a feature: There are lots of people who prefer to subscribe to mailing lists with different addresses, different to their "normal" email address. After setting (and validating) an address it is used with 'subscribe ' and this mail address is stored in the - separately from your personal data. This way it is possible to subscribe to each mailing list with another mail address. BUT: Keep in mind that the Nemesis mailing lists are closed lists: Only subscribed addresses are allowed to post on the list! Although these mailing lists are managed from within Nemesis and therefore the subscribed mail addresses are stored in the MudLib, the addresses are kept away from all players and wizards except Archwizards (see 'help admin').
