If the list needs to be accessed by others, you need to set up a global mailing list. A feature often overlooked about a global mailing list is that it can provide an official contact point for a campus unit or office, independent of vacation schedules. In this case, the list contains a single member who is changed as needed to point to the correct person currently handling the contacts in that unit or office. In a mailing list, the recipient decides how long to retain the message. Many courses have mailing lists, and most staff in a given unit will subscribe to the same lists.
Some units maintain their own moderated mailing lists.
Please contact the list moderator to find out how to submit items to the list. For more details, check the e-mail FAQs . If the mailing list is to be used both by yourself and by others, fill out the global mailing list request form to create the list on the central mail server. You will then be able to alter its contents with either listmaint , mailmaint , or blanche . The listmaint and mailmaint page includes documentation.
