How can I get MER weekly via Email?

To be added to the MER List send a message to LISTSERVER@MiddleEast.Org with the words "Subscribe MER-L" (without quotations) in the subject and message areas. You will begin receiving MER QUOTES AND LIES OF THE WEEK along with other occasional information. You can leave the MER List at anytime by sending a message to the same address with the words "Unsubscribe MER-L" in the subject and messages areas.


How can I talk on the Internet about Middle East issues? New...WEBPHONE!

We are making arrangements to make it easy for you to leave voicemail as well as email messages here on the Internet and to talk with key persons during certain weekly hours -- all free of all costs through your Internet connection. Click on WEBPHONE here to have it downloaded to you. Or send a message to LISTSERVER@MiddleEast.Org with the word Webphone in the subject and message areas.

If you have any problems downloading the new special MER WEBPHONE just send an email message to MER@MiddleEast.Org asking us to download the Webphone along with special instructions and times to reach us on the Web.

The special MER Webphone is fully functioning and has been thoroughly tested and it is by far the best such program available. It is very easy to install in Windows 3.1 or Windows 95 -- just run the self-installing file which is 883,390 bytes in size and follow the simple directions. You can use it as much as you like free of charge -- and we encourage you to share it with friends and relatives (just email them a copy if you like). This free version of WebPhone is limited to 3-minutes of talk time per call (though you can just hit the reconnect button if you want to continue talking). If you decide to register you will find the one-time $49.95 cost for unlimited usage well worth it; plus a number of other very advanced features will be become active upon registration -- including 4-line phone capability, unlimited voicemail messaging, automatic connections, music-on-hold, and even conferencing of multiple persons.

Of course the WEBPHONE can also be immediately used for all kinds of Internet phone conversations between persons, and groups, throughout the world. We've tested the different options, and this new WebPhone is by far the best. So please go ahead, download and install it, and feel free to pass it along to friends and family as well.
