Send the following command as the body of an email to your LIST REQUEST ADDRESS to see everyone who is on your mailing list. The roster is limited to list members only, and you must supply your admin password to retrieve it.
Your list request address (found in your listmail headers) is typically
yourlistname-request@yourdomainname.com
The simplest format would be to send from your admin address without brackets or modifiers; if your password is banana, simply send one line reading:
who banana
This won’t preserve your other settings, but it’s a great start when you’re trying to reconstitute a list!

When you send a file to a designer or a printer, consider renaming it so the filename is relevant to the person you’re sending it to, rather than yourself.
Filenames like “my-business-cards.jpg” or “website-modifications.doc” can easily get lost in the shuffle if the recipient doesn’t catch the file and rename it quickly, and it’s hard to do a search for if it’s gone missing, or if an old file is required years down the road.
If your name is Mary Juana, think how easy it is to search and access a file named “Mary-Juana-website-updates-june-20-2006.zip”.

Two things about “any key”.
Firstly, when the computer asks you to hit any key to start, it means “Hit the space bar.” Really. You want the “any” key you’re hitting to be a safe one, and the space bar answers nicely. If you’re pressed, the up-down-sideways navigation arrows work fine too.
Secondly, due to a bunch of playful, fun-loving computer techs, and possibly something Homer Simpson said, the “Any” key is also known as the big red button on the back of your computer. This is your last resort key, as in “I got so frustrated I pressed the Any Key“, or your malicious humour outlet: “Yes, sir, simply press the Any Key, it will solve your computer problems.“
