OTS Policies: ListServ Policy

General:

IIT's Office of Technology Services supports two different mailing list systems for use by faculty, staff, and qualified student organizations. A mailing list automatically sends all list subscribers a copy of any message sent to the list; it is a tool frequently used for ongoing online discussions.

Who:

Any IIT faculty or staff member or any qualified student organization may operate mailing lists.

Administration of Mailing Lists:

After the initial list operator account creation, the listowner is responsible for all administration of that list. Administration of the Majordomo lists can be performed via e-mail. Documentation for e-mail list administration commands is online at http://majordomo.cns.iit.edu/list-owner-info.html. The web based Listserv allows you to manage the list through a web browser. Instructions for the web based Listserv is available on the site (http://mailer.iit.edu). Following initial set-up of the list, OTS will not be responsible for any list administration or management.

Please note that your mailing list should not exceed 500 email addresses, and the system is not guaranteed to work correctly with some international email addresses.

Account Request:

Account request information can be found on the web sites.

Disclaimer:

Illinois Institute of Technology does not monitor, nor are we responsible for, the content of any communication served by an IIT Majordomo mailing list. Contents, management, and proper conduct of the list are the sole responsibility of the listowner.
