    Participation & Email Frequency/Fast Track

    Participation makes it easy to access the Public Library, link & Media and other sections of the @Forum, as well as receiving messages of the list into your own email box, in the manner you prefer. To become a member of a given group, you are invited to send an empty email to the postmaster@ecoplan.org indicating which group you wish to join, or even easier going directly to the program that interest you and clicking the Sign-In link on the menu. After a short while you will receive a confirmation, unless there is a technical problem with your address. When you have signed up you can elect to receive feedback from this site in any of three forms:
      (a) Individual emails. To receive all individual email messages.
      (b) Daily digest: To receive all emails for the day in one message.
      (c) Special notices*. Only send important update emails from group moderator.
      (d) Don't send me email*, I'll read the messages at the Web site at leisure.
    * Fast Track options Many of you may find one of the latter more convenient. The Fast Track -- the best way to fit the Commons and its many parts into a crowded schedule.

    Note: If you wish to leave the list at any time, just send a blank email to

    First Time Visitor?

    First time visitors are invited to read the Welcoming Note which explains in a few short paragraphs how this component of the program works. If you intend to participate actively. . . such as sending email or comments to the group or posting materials under the Public Library or Links & Media sections, we would ask you to give these guidelines your close attention before first use. A few minutes well spent there will make you a better neighbor and @World CarSharing a more focused, creative and useful tool for us all. We all thank you for taking the time to do this.

    And What If You Can't Get in, or Forgot Your Password?

    That's simple. Here's the drill.

    1. Just enter YahooGroups home page at http://www.egroups.com
    2. Where you see, mid-page, the slot to put your email address to register... Don't! Instead click, "Forgot?".
    3. You then just calmly follow the routine, bearing in mind that it will take about two minutes for the robot to send you via email your 'validation number'. (Be sure to check your email to get it.)
    4. From there on in, it's quick. Just follow the several instructions and you are back in and fully registered and ready to go.

    Thank you for your patience in this. We know that can be trying, but neither did we learn to read over night.

    Otherwise....

    If you have a problem with any of this, you are invited to contact any of the World CarShare Support Team. That should do it.
