FOR USERS OF THE HME TALK LISTSERV

If you are a user of the email-based HME Talk Listserv, and you would like to continue to read and/or send messages to HME Talk via your email software, the following information will walk you through getting set up on the new online web-based HME Talk, www.hmetalk.com.

Step #1 - Register on HME Talk

Even if you have been receiving HME Talk “Listserv” messages, you MUST register with the new web-based HME Talk in order to read and post messages.

This process is easy – simply go towww.hmetalk.com and click on the orange button “CLICK HERE TO REGISTER TODAY!”. Follow the on-screen instructions. You will be asked to enter a username (anything you would like), your Full Name, and your Company Name, and your Email Address.

Once you submit your information, you will receive a Confirmation Email that you must click a link in order to activate your account on HME Talk.

Step #2 – Login to HME Talk

Once your account has been set up, you need to login to HME Talk. In the upper right corner of most pages of HME Talk, you will see the login box (or information indicating you are already logged in). Once you are logged in, you will be able to read all HME Talk posts, and create new threads, etc.

Step #3 – Subscribe to Forum(s) to Receive/Send Posts Via Email

<<This step is only required if you wish to view and/or send message posts using your email software.>>

1) Go to www.hmetalk.com/forum (or click the “Forums” link on the menu bar of HME Talk).

2) Click on the forum category you wish to subscribe to (receive posts via email), such as “General HME Talk”.

3) Click on the orange button to the right, labeled “Change Email Settings”.

The following screen tells you exactly what emails you will receive and can send to this forum category. On the drop-down below, select “Instant notification by email for new threads and replies” and then click the “Submit Change”.

You can do Step #3 for all of the Forum Categories that you wish to be able to receive message posts.

If your previous HME Talk Listserv messages were being directed to a specific folder in your email software, you may need to modify your “Rule” in your email software to allow the new messages to continue to automatically move into the appropriate folder(s).
