N.B. If you would like to get information about changes in fMRI protocols, software updates for data processing, seminar announcements, please subscribe to the fmri-announce  mailing list. 
For that you just have to send an  email to<Majordomo@bic.mni.mcgill.ca>.

If you have a signature block at the end of your mail, Majordomo may mistakenly believe each line of your message is a command; you will then receive spurious error messages.
To keep this from happening, either put a line starting with a hyphen ("-") before your signature, or put a line with just the word

        end

on it in the same place.  This will stop the Majordomo software from processing your signature as bad commands.
