Trevor, You want to send mailing list instructions to the mail server:
MXserver@bolton.ac.uk not to the regular mailing list address.

The following commands can be handled automatically through the -Request

interface:

    SUBSCRIBE           - to subscribe to a mailing list
    SIGNOFF             - to remove yourself from a mailing list
    REVIEW              - to get a list of subscribers
    QUERY               - to get the status of your entry on the list
    SET NOMAIL          - to remain on the list but not receive mail
    SET MAIL            - to reverse the NOMAIL setting
    SET CONCEAL         - to conceal yourself from REVIEW listings
    SET NOCONCEAL       - to reverse the CONCEAL setting
    SET NOREPRO         - to prevent the list from sending you your own
postings
    SET REPRO           - to reverse the NOREPRO setting
    LIST                - to get a list of mailing lists available on
this host
    HELP                - to receive a help file

The syntax of these commands for use with the LISTSERV emulator is:

    SUBSCRIBE FTGZG-L
    SIGNOFF FTGZG-L
    REVIEW  FTGZG-L
    QUERY   FTGZG-L
    SET FTGZG-L [NO]MAIL
    SET FTGZG-L [NO]CONCEAL
    SET FTGZG-L [NO]REPRO
    LIST
    HELP
