Information Services evaluates the request and discusses any questions with the list owner. Once questions are resolved, Information Services creates the mailing list within 3 working days. The list owner is notified when the list is created. The list owner should test the list to ensure the proper configuration has been established. The list owner is responsible for maintenance of the mailing list and problem resolution.
Every mailing list has a mission.
Please read the mission statement or the reason why the list was created. Conversations on a given list should pertain to the subject of the list. Sending email to a mailing list, for example, about a topic that doesn't have anything to do with the nature of the list would not be considered good netiquette. Save the messages you receive from mailing lists when you first subscribe. They have the information you will need when you want to terminate your subscription from the lists.
