Some one mentioned that she/he sent all clayart posts to a digest. How
is this done? Also, is is possible to blank out posts being received
during certain hours, rather than signing off and on? I receive clayart
on my work computer and will be using that compouter for a beginning
computer class with my senior citizen students. When mail comes in a
message pops up and a ding goes off. I know this will be disconcerting
for whomever is using this computer. The class is going to meet
Wednesday afternoons between 12:30 & 4:30 so if there is some way to
block clayart email's during that period I would love to learn how.
Thanks to those who responded with all of the suggestions on clay work
with my seniors. Some of those things we do but some residents want to
learn to throw and have the strength problem. I'll try your
suggestions.

One thing you might consider is establishing a separate email account
with one of the free servers out there. I know that Yahoo.com and
hotmail.com both have free accounts. Then you could use that account
only for clayart and check it only when you have time to think and
talk about clay. Of course, you'll also find that those accounts send
you a lot more junk mail, etc. so make sure that you have good
security on your computer or just delete anything not clay.
I don't know about a digest. Maybe someone else has a better solution.

Hi Lucy,
Copied and pasted from the instructions Mel posted earlier this week:
>>If you are using a commercial service you may want to set your CLAYART
>>subscription to DIGEST, which sends all the mail for one day as a single
>>e-mail message. To do this send the following message to

I get Clayart in digest form. I can then scan a whole days postings from
one email. It may not be the most convenient because you can't delete
anything, but I just scroll past anything I don't want to read. Not a
problem. :o)

If that's what you really want, it's all explained at the ceramics.org web
site at the bottom of this (and every) Clayart message. But see below...

This has nothing to do with digests or with Clayart. It has to do with the
email settings on YOUR computer. It appears from your message headers that
your email program is "Novell GroupWise Internet Agent 6.0.2". I'm not
familiar with this program, but certainly there is a setting in it that
will cause you to receive new mail ONLY when you 'ask' for it, as opposed
to the way it's working now--receiving mail as it becomes available on your
Internet Service Provider's mail server.
For example, with my email program, Eudora, I can set it to check for new
mail every 10 minutes (or any other interval), or I can set it to check for
and receive mail only when I click a certain button--thus no interruptions.
You can most likely stifle the "ding," too!

It is usually possible to turn off the "ding" so that you are not alerted
when you get email. How to do it depends on your PC & software, but I'll bet
there's a way.

I set my email account to nomail and then just access it on the web
through ACERS. It is very simple, you never get any mail, no viruses, it
is archived for you and you can search it easily!
You can go on whenever you want and read what ever the most current week
is, you can follow a topic by pressing a button rather that reading
everything. It is great!
Try it:

Try e-scribe. Set Clayart NOMAIL and as an alternate check e-scribe for
whatever day you wish.whenever you want - present day, one day past or any
other specific day - e-scribe is free and I like it.

Once again;
I have set a separate email box just for Clayart. With most email
programs you can have several email address boxes.
Set up an email box for Clayart and then set prefernce to accept only
emalis that have the "to" line from Clayart. All the rest will be
shunted to the trash folder, leaving only Clayart posts.
You do have to put a disclaimer in your Clayart posts that a
personal response must be sent to a different email box.
Thus: I post to the Clayart list as NCAClay.cox.net ( that's the
Nottingham Center for the Arts) , but my personal email is
Go2tms.cox.net
If folks respond about a message via the list then it is: in the
"to " section of Clayart and I can see it.
If one wants to respond to me personaly the email is addressed to
Go2tms@cox.net.
For sure some folks don't take the time to read the information and
their email is lost..
Well, that's their problem in not reading all the information for
reply.

The web bots don't find your real address that's in your disclaimer?
