We have FOUR methods for subscribing to the MM Main List.

For Free Email services that work well with our Listserv, we can suggest Google's Gmail Email service (and the "Regular" format) as an excellent FREE email solution for ours and any other Listserv system.

2) Our Quick And Easy ICORS Management Form

Click Here!
Fill out the Form, and answer the Confirmation Email- DONE!
No password required!
(All changes on this form require a reply confirmation message from your Email account.)
The most popular options for receiving Listserv messages is whether you wish to receive these Email messages in a steady stream when they are sent ("Regular" format) or if you want them batched into a single, larger, message that only arrives once or a few times per day. ("Digest" format.)

3) The Whole Package- Create a Full ICORS Login

Complete Method- Creating an account with our provider, ICORS.ORG, can be helpful. There are additional features only available to ICORS subscribers.
Once this account is created, you can then use their interface to subscribe to MMLIST or MMABSERS, our Listserv services with Icors.org.
We have a User's Guide for this complete process, in Web Page HTML Format - listserv.html And in Acrobat PDF Format: listserv.pdf
(Note that creating a ICORS.ORG account will also enable you to make your own changes to your subscription settings.)

We also have a Guide to RETURNING to ICORS.ORG after you have created this login-
(This was identified as a problem by some users.)
Read this documentation HERE: returning_to_icors.html
Or download it in Acrobat PDF Format: returning_to_icors.pdf

Welcome to Moderation Management's Online Services!
  Moderation Management offers a variety of electronic online services. We are constantly considering and evaluating new services, so this listing may change at any time.
Our current offerings feature the MM Forum, our Chat Room, and the venerable MM Listserv, MMLIST.

The MM Forum
  The MM Forum offers a greater level of privacy than the Listserv. Although posts can be viewed in real time, they also can be viewed as historical strings of important topics.
The Forum Community has built a special place, both for Public visitors (there is moderated content available for visitors without a login) and for the dedicated MM participant.

Our Chat Room
  Chat is our most intimate service. Our professional-quality RumbleTalk service makes for a quality Chat experience. Chats are scheduled, but the Chat Room is also available for drop-in chats anytime.

MMLIST Listserv
  To call a Listserv system a "Email distribution list" does not completely do it justice. A listserv is a unique and powerful communication system, which distributes messages via email to it's subscribers. But it is much more than that. It is a community, a healing place, a world of your creation.
  "When you join MM's national internet mailing list, it is not unlike attending a live MM meeting. Some people describe it as a group meeting in "slow motion". This is a great alternative for people who do not have MM groups in their local communities, or who prefer on-line groups."
  It is a place where you can share your experiences, successes, and challenges while addressing drinking concerns. This list tends to include social interaction as well as Moderation talk. When you first sign on, you may find that some of the posts have little to do with drinking. Give it some time. Discussion always returns to what brought us here.
(For individuals that have a commitment to abstaining from alcohol, see our MMABSERS Abstaining Support Listserv.)
CLICK HERE  for the Listserv Welcome Message from the "MM Welcome Team".

  We trust you will find our online services to be special places where you can meet new friends and discuss personal topics. It is our feeling that when you begin to deal with problem drinking, you also start to deal with other life issues common among our members.

The Work Continues.

How does the Listserv Work?
Once you are subscribed, you may "post" messages to the listserv from your subscribed Email Address
by sending Email to our Listserv at:

And the system will send messages to your Email account during the day, according to your preferences.

NOTE: The Listserv has some difficulty sending messages to certain Email services.
If offered with your Email service, please consider whitelisting our main address:

Some Email services, however, insist on blocking our Listserv service or record incoming messages as possible "SPAM"
simply because these messages are coming from a single Internet address that is sending a large number of Email messages.
If you are having unusual problems receiving Listserv Messages, contact us at admin@moderation.org
and we will work with you and your Email service to try to resolve the issue.

RSS Feed and MMLIST Archive Links

We are pleased to now offer an RSS Subscription Link for MMLIST. This can be an ideal way to read our Listserv WITHOUT receiving a large amount of email messages.
   Note that a subscription (see the form above) is still Required! Only Subscribed users can access our RSS feed. It is available for use by any RSS client, such as Mozilla's Firefox. (Note that Microsoft's Internet Explorer 7 has difficulty fully supporting this RSS feed.)
   Also this RSS feed will require a separate ICORS.ORG login. If you don't already have an ICORS.ORG login, clicking on the RSS feed link below will put you on a login page where you can create this login. (A confirmation email message must be answered to complete this login process.)
   (Information about creating an ICORS.ORG login is available in a User's Guide.)
   If you decide to ONLY read our Listserv via either RSS or the Archives, you may set your subscription to be NO MAIL. These subscriptions can still post messages from a subscribed Email address, and read RSS and Archive messages, but will not receive any Listserv messages to the subscribed Email address.

MMLIST Archives: http://listserv.icors.org/scripts/wa-icors.exe?A0=MMLIST

(Note: Our Archive policy is to maintain the current month and the previous month only.)

The User Policy below applies to all systems and services in use, owned, or otherwise controlled by Moderation Management Network, Inc. ("MM")
 
The Moderation Management Network, Inc. computer systems are part of the MM program to help those concerned about a drinking problem. Civil public discourse is an important aspect of group support.
 
Moderation Management Network, Inc. will not tolerate sexual or gender-based harassment of any form. All users of MM computer systems are expected to show respect for each other. Differences of opinion are welcomed but disagreements should be respectfully expressed. Disparaging or degrading speech is not acceptable or helpful to those here to work on a drinking problem. It is requested that users refrain from using profanity and expletives.
 
Moderation Management Network, Inc. is not in a position to monitor all systems. However, when disruptive posting is discovered, posters will receive a private communication and if it continues, the user may be unsubscribed. Our goal is to maintain civil public discourse on any computer system owned and operated by MM. It is our reasonable expectation that all users of these systems will understand and comply with this request.
 
Use of MM systems is a privilege, not a right. We reserve the right to deny access to any user at any time. Questions about this policy may be addressed to admin@moderation.org .
