# List Syntax File

In order for users to get information about lists on a particular mail host, or to subscribe to lists on a particular mail host, users must send a request addressed to imailsrv@domain.com (where domain.com is the name of the mail host). This e-mail address is a built-in alias that lets users:

- Get general help about the list-server for a particular mail host

- Get specific help about a particular list

- Get a list of all the list-server mailing lists available on a particular mail host

- Get a list of all the subscribers to a particular list

- Subscribe to a subscriber list

- Unsubscribe from a subscriber list

- Get a digest of messages sent to the list

## Format of Requests

Requests addressed to imailsrv@domain.com must contain a list-server command and (when appropriate) a list name in the body of the message. The following commands may appear in the body of the message:

- Help

- Help listname

- List

- List listname

- Subscribe listname your_name

- Unsubscribe listname your_name

- Set mode digest listname

- Set mode standard listname
