WIND Networking

When sending email to the listserv, where appropriate, please add an email code from the table below. Enclose the email code in SQUARE brackets at the beginning of the subject field. If your email does not fit any of the codes listed below then do not use any code. Do not create your own codes. Using these codes will save time for everyone reading their email whether they filter their email or not.

Also, just a reminder, you never need to add [Wind] to the subject field of your email, it is added automatically.

Email filtering based on Codes
Many email programs allow you to filter your email and sort the messages into selected folders. This can be a big time saver for those who don't get the condensed version of WIND email. If you are currently receiving the condensed version you must change your preferences on the WIND web site first. For instructions on how to set up email filtering for some of the more popular email programs click on the appropriate link below.
