forward you a copy of each posting as it is submitted, and 'Digest', which
forwards a compilation of posts made during a 24 hour period each day at

Dedicated to the discussion and advancement of Volvo Performance.
------------www.turbobricks.org--------------
The ultimate resource for Volvo Performance worldwide!
History
=======
The Turbobrick e-mail forum was formed in 1996 by Angel Morales of David,
Chiriqui, Republic of Panama.
Purpose
=======
The Turbobricks e-mail forum is for the discussion and advancement of Volvo
Performance worldwide. Topic ranges from turbocharger selection, intercoolers,
engine and suspension modifications, and many more topics. You do not need to
be a turbocharger equipped car owner to participate in this forum as
non-turbocharged Volvo's are discussed from time to time but remember it's
all about performance!
This is important: we are all about performance here, not general maintenance
issues! There are many other venues for general Volvo maintenance related
issues but there is only this forum for the discussion of making our Volvo's
faster, handle better and more powerful!
For general question revolving around maintainances issues we strongly
suggest that you try our friends on the Swedish Bricks list
(
www.swedishbricks.org) or the Brick Board (
www.brickboard.com).
Policy
======
The discussion of non-Volvo powered vehicles and topics of general (non-high
performance) automotive interest are strongly discouraged. Please limit
discussions to those within the guidelines of the list's purpose. The moderator
will guide discussions that stray from the interest of the intended audience
back to focus or suggest the discussion be taken to personal e-mail.
Profanity, personal attacks, and 'flaming' are not tolerated. Such behavior
will result in a warning by the moderator. Persistent disruptions or
inappropriate postings will result in expulsion from the list.
How To Subscribe
================
The list operation is maintained using 'Majordomo' software. This software
allows you to submit subscription requests to join the list, and automatically
forwards list traffic to subscribers automatically.
Before subscribing, you should consider how you want to receive the list
traffic. Two methods are available. 'Standard' allows you to receive a copy
of each message as it is posted. This will cause you to receive many mail
messages each day. 'Digest' sends a single compilation of the past 24 hours
of list discussion at approximately 2100 Eastern US time each evening. Both
methods will provide you with all the list discussion, and both permit you
to participate in the discussion.
To subscribe in the 'standard' format, you need to send a mail message to
majordomo@gnttype.org with the command "subscribe turbobricks" followed by
your email address. For example: If your email address is
user@foo.bar,
you would send a message to
majordomo@gnttype.org containing only:
subscribe turbobricks
user@foo.bar
To subscribe in the 'digest' format, you need to send a mail message to
majordomo@gnttype.org with the command 'subscribe turbobricks-digest'
followed by your email address. For example: If your email address is
user@foo.bar, you would send a message to
majordomo@gnttype.org containing
only:
subscribe turbobricks-digest
user@foo.bar
Naturally, in either case you would use your own email address in place
of the example. If you are unsure of your email address contact your
internet provider for assistance. Your subscription can not be processed
without a correct email address.
Once your subscription request is reviewed and approved, you'll begin to
receive the list traffic.
For more command information, send a message only containing the
word 'help' in the text to
majordomo@gnttype.org.
