Getting Started
Requests to establish General Mailing Lists and Course Lists will
normally be processed within 2-3 working days. When a list has been
set up, the person who requested the list (known as
the "List
Owner") should receive a notice, via e-mail, that the list is
ready for use.
The List Owner handles subscribe/unsubscribe requests to closed
lists, authorizes posts to moderated lists, handles bounced mail,
etc. The workload can vary from very light for open, unmoderated
lists to heavy for busy, moderated lists.The List Owner has the
password for the list, which is used for approving posts and making
configuration changes to the list. All list options
(moderated/unmoderated, closed/open) can be configured through mail
by the List Owner.
Course Lists
Subscription in a Course List is automatically created by data
from the Office of the University Registrar. Course lists are updated
with add/drops, etc. throughout the semester. Additional Subscribers,
e.g., Teaching Assistants, can be added by the List Owner. Additional
Subscribers would only be included for the current semester.
Once you receive notification that your Course List has been
established, it is ready for use. To post a message to the list, send
mail to listname-l@bu.edu
