   • releases -- All CPSC press releases, including recalls
   • recalls -- Recalls only

2. Prepare a new email message to: lyris@list.cpsc.gov
3. To subscribe, type the following (substituting for "listname") in the SUBJECT line:
   
   join listname (where listname = all, releases, recalls, calendar, cpsr, child, recreation, outdoor, household, or specialty)
   
   
4. To unsubscribe, type the following (substituting for "listname") in the SUBJECT line:
