in the case of the regional lists, to members of that particular region.
Non-renewing members will be unsubscribed at the end of the dues payment period.
YOU MUST ADD YOUR NAME TO THE YAHOO PROFILE as it appears on the ACA membership
list so that we can determine you are a member. Completing any other
information is up to your discretion.
This list is used by the Club Officers, Board, and Committee Chairs for
announcements to members about club activities and to provide information of
possible interest to ACA members. Members cannot post to this list nor can they
reply to an email. If they wish to discuss any material appearing on this
list, they should contact their Region Representative or a Director At Large.
Subscribers to this list can send original posts to this list or reply to
posts from other members. All posts must be relevant to the business of the
Akita Club of America rather than applicable to Akitas or dogs in general.
Many other discussion lists are available for this purpose.
Non-Members: If you are not a member of the Akita Club of America, your
request for subscription will be denied. For further information on membership,

AKITA MEMBERS LIST GUIDELINES
The guidelines/rules that will be in place apply to everyone, equally. Those
who choose to ignore those rules will be given a ONE TIME warning. Should
it be ignored, the offender will be placed on No Post once for a week.
During this time, they can read mail but cannot post to the list. A third
offense will result in removal from the list by the list owner.
First and foremost, the ACA list is intended for the discussion of matters
concerning and involving the Akita Club of America. Off topic posts should be
sent privately, or to the other general Akita lists.
NO personal attacks (flames) will be tolerated. You cannot insult other
posters nor can you belittle them or their opinions. If you have a problem
with a fellow list member, take your battles privately. Uncivil, rude,
provocative, or off-topic discussion will result in disciplinary action as
outlined above.
TRIM YOUR POSTS! Learn how to highlight excess text and delete it when you
reply to posts. This includes removing the advertisements and bottom banner that
come with each post.
NO Attachments Allowed! These will automatically be removed from your post.
If you have an appropriate attachment you would like to share with the
membership, send it to a list moderator and they can put it in the file or photo
section of the yahoo website for this list.
This list is in place to provide a forum for discussion of ACA business and
affairs between ACA members which may include some or all of the Officers and
Board.
GENERAL INFORMATION
WHAT IS AN EMAIL LIST?
Email lists are a way for individuals to mail individual comments to a group.
You mail your post to the list server and that computer forwards it to all other
subscribers. The volume of mail each individual receives will depend on how many
post each day and how many people are on the list.
HOW DO I SUBSCRIBE?
To subscribe to this list, go to the Yahoo groups Website and complete the
enrollment process. This site has many email list. The ACA announcement list is
called "acamail" which you should type in the box for the list name.
The discussion list for members is called "acamems." Once you
have selected a list to join, you will be taken to the next page which has the
matches for your request. Click on the list name and you will be taken through
steps to subscribe.
HOW DO I GET OFF THE LIST?
Go to http://www.groups.yahoo.com,
enter your name and password and go to the menu page which contains your list
information. Follow the prompts from there. This menu will also let you change
your subscription between digest and normal mode.
WHAT IS DIGEST AND NORMAL MODE?
You may receive email messages on an individual basis or get several of them
bundled together at one time. Digest form can greatly reduce the volume of email
you get from a heavily used list.
If you choose to receive your mail in digest form, please remember to delete
all but the appropriate section when you reply to a post. Otherwise, your next
digest will contain the previous digest in its entirety. Not only is this as
poor netiquette, it makes follow the topic very difficult.
WHERE DO I SEND MAIL?
Replies are not allowed on the ACA mal list. It is an information only list.
For the ACA Members list, you send mail to acamems@yahoogroups.com.
Regional lists have their own addresses listed above.
To subscribe, unsubscribe, access the archives, or obtain more information
about the list functions, please go to the Yahoo groups website
WHAT IF I GO ON VACATION OR OUT OF TOWN AND DON'T
WANT MY EMAIL TO PILE UP?
No one wants to come home to a backlog of emails, and some servers cannot
handle too many without refusing your mail. You do not need to unsubscribe to
avoid this. Just go to the Yahoo groups website and follow the instructions to
put yourself on "no mail." You can read what you have missed in the
archives, which you can access the same way.
WHAT IS THE AKITA CLUB LIST?
We are a group of individuals who are members of the ACA ( Akita Club of
America). The ACA has two lists, one for those who want announcements only from
the club and one for discussion of ACA business among members.
WHO CAN JOIN IT?
Lists restricted to ACA members, all of whom are welcome to join the group.
You must have your name listed in the Yahoo profiles, although you do not need
to put any other information.
MY APPLICATION IS PENDING, CAN I JOIN NOW?

of your election to membership, if you have a request to join the list pending,
we will approve it.
Thank you and enjoy the ACA email list!
