The central computer then forwards the message to all of the other members of the listserve. The ultimate effect is the same as if you had sent the email to everyone on the list individually. For example, if I were to write a message and send it to the listserve, everyone on the listserve will receive it. Thus, instead of having to email a hundred different people, you will only need to send a single email to one place. You do not need to worry about viruses or security problems.
Messages forwarded by the listserve are exactly like all other emails.
