On most lists, you will simply receive a copy of your mail when it has gone
through the list software, but if this is disabled (See
Section 7.4), your list mail delivery is disabled (See
Section 7.1), you are not subscribed to that topic (See
Section 9.2) or you
simply want an extra acknowledgement from the system, this option may
be useful to you.
Note:
If you are not subscribed to the list, this option cannot be used.
You must either check the archives yourself (if the list has public archives),
ask someone who is subscribed to the list, or subscribe to use this option.
To set this using the web interface:
Log in to your member options page. (See Section 3.1
for more details on how to do this.)
Look for the section marked "Receive acknowledgement mail when you
send mail to the list?"
Set it to "Yes" to receive a mail letting you know your post has been
received, and "No" to avoid receiving such an acknowledgement.
To set this using the email interface:
Send a mail to LISTNAME-request@DOMAIN with the command
set ack on or set ack off.
Commands can appear
in either the body or the subject of the message. (See
Section 3.2 for more information about sending mail
commands.)
Set it to "on" if you wish to receive mail letting you know your
post has been received, and "off" to avoid receiving such an
acknowledgement.
