ECEMEN-L Discussion ListECEMEN-L is an open, unmoderated Listserv dicussion list intended for any man or woman who would like to discuss the issue of men working in the field of early childhood education. Topics of discussion include organizing a men's caucus; activities, presentations, etc. at local and national conferences; examining barriers to men entering the field; recruiting ideas; dealing with sexual abuse accusations; retaining the male staff members in your programs; and experiences of men in early education in other countries.
The list is co-owned by Bruce Sheppard, representing the National Association
for the Education of Young Children’s (NAEYC) Men’s Caucus,
and by the Early Childhood and Parenting (ECAP) Collaborative at the University
of Illinois. View the results of
a survey of ECEMEN-L (then NAEYCMEN-L) list members that was conducted
in March 2002.

Setting Mail Options for ECEMEN-L
There are three different mail options for the ECEMEN-L listserv:
- Mail. Messages arrive in your mail box one at a time as they
are posted to the news group. This is the setting you are AUTOMATICALLY
given when you subscribe. It is very easy to respond directly to messages
received, but some people find that so many separate messages can clutter
up their mail box.
- Nomail. You remain subscribed to ECEMEN-L, but new messages
will not be sent to you. This is a good way to keep your mail box from
filling up if you will be on vacation or away from your e-mail account
for an extended period.
- Digest. You will receive only ONE message per day from ECEMEN-L which includes ALL of the day's postings collected together. Digests are nice if you don't like wading through lots of separate messages, but it's harder to reply to any one specific posting.
To change your mail settings for ECEMEN-L, send an e-mail message to:
|
listserv@listserv.illinois.edu |
Do NOT send any mail setting changes to ECEMEN-L
To temporarily STOP mail from being delivered, send the following command:
|
set ECEMEN-L nomail
|
To start receiving mail in DIGEST form, send the following command:
|
set ECEMEN-L digest
|
To UNDO either of the previous commands, send the following message:
|
set ECEMEN-L mail
|
Setting Message Acknowledgements and Reproductions
The Acknowledgement setting tells the Listserv computer whether or not to send you an acknowledgement whenever you send a message to the list. The setting options are ACK and NOACK. For instance, if you send a message with subject line "General Information", you can automatically get a message back from the Listserv computer that is something like:
Your message dated XXX with subject "General Information" was successfully distributed to the XXX list.
The Reproduction setting tells the Listserv computer whether or not you want to see your own message posted to the list. The setting options are REPRO and NOREPRO.
To change your acknowledgement and reproduction settings for ECEMEN-L, send an e-mail message to:
|
listserv@listserv.illinois.edu
|
Do NOT send acknowledgement or reproduction setting changes to ECEMEN-L
To receive an automatic acknowledgement from the Listserv computer whenever you post a message to the list, send the command:
|
set ECEMEN-L ack
|
If you do not want to receive an acknowledgement, send the message:
|
set ECEMEN-L noack
|
If you want to see your own message posted to the list, send the message:
|
set ECEMEN-L repro
|
If you do not want to see your own message posted to the list, send the message:
|
set ECEMEN-L norepro
|
It is a good idea to set one of these options "on" (i.e., ACK or REPRO) so that you can know that your own posting has been received by the list. There are default settings for these options for each Listserv list. Each list may have different default settings.
