Your e-mail address

For a number of functions, such as submitting e-mail to the mailing list, obtaining the membership list, etc., authorization is done by matching the e-mail address of the sender against those listed in the membership list. The e-mail address MUST EXACTLY MATCH one listed in the membership list. E-mail from any other address will be automatically denied.

Example:Is NOT the same as:
Santa.Claus@xmas.org stnick@northpole.xmas.org
employee@orange.acme.com employee@purple.acme.com
student@sparc4.cs.uiuc.edu    student@cs.uiuc.edu

(If you want to see how your e-mail address looks when you send e-mail, send e-mail to yourself.) If the e-mail addresses do not exactly match, you can either use the actual e-mail address or make them match by either configuring your mailer properly (some mailers allow you to set your e-mail address) or ask your system administrator for assistance.

Also, we prefer that you have your own e-mail address rather than sharing somebody else's. (The other person might not want all the barefoot-related mail in his/her mailbox. It also tends to confuse people when the name in the From line doesn't match the name signed at the bottom.) Anyone can obtain free e-mail from a host of companies including Hotmail, Juno, Yahoo, and others.

You may change your e-mail address by sending a request to sbl-consult@barefooters.org, but you MUST SEND IT FROM THE NEW ADDRESS.

For any other list related request, a member should also write to sbl-consult@barefooters.org


E-Mail problems

If you experience any problems with either sending or receiving e-mail to the SBL , contact your ISP. The SBL mailing list sends e-mail to hundreds of people successfully so if there is a problem, it is most likely on your end.

Please do not contact the SBL administrator for problems with either sending e-mail to or receiving e-mail from individual SBL members. Such e-mail does not go through any computers having anything to do with the SBL, so there's nothing that can be done here anyway. Such problems should be reported to your system administrator and/or the system administrator of the other SBL member.


Unsubscribing from and leaving the SBL

If, after a while, you feel the Society for Barefoot Living is not for you, you can write to: sbl-consult@barefooters.org and request to be removed. We would also appreciate a note stating why you decided to leave.
