Mailinglist

Want to receive news, gossip, partake in discussions about ACS, Beirut, the Middle East, the school with friends, or other ACS'ers you never even knew? An email sent by one subscriber to "acs at abdallah hiof.no" will be distributed to all the other subscribers to the ACS mailing list. But the list will only accept mail from subscribers. If you want to be added to the list, send an e-mail message to: "majordomo at abdallah.hiof.no" with the single message "subscribe acs" and nothing else. A message of acknowledgment will arrive almost immediately with further instructions on how to use the list.

If you prefer to receive a digest of all messages once every day rather than the messages individually, send the message "subscribe acs-digest" instead.
