Listserv Mailing Lists

 Subscribing to Discussion Section Mailing Lists

Email-based mailing lists are one of the oldest and most popular uses of the Internet. They are also an extremely effective means for gathering information and exchanging notes. An automated mailing list allows each subscriber to send mail to a single address, but to have that mail delivered to dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of recipient mailboxes. The mailing list or listserv takes care of sending your one message to all the numerous subscribers.

Using your current e-mail account, you can subscribe to the class mailing list by reading and following the instructions below:

-Section Listservs-How to Subscribe to the UGIS55A Course LISTSERVs-

Purpose:

This automated mailing list will allow all of us to stay in touch with each other. In particular, we encourage you to use the mailing list to seek answers to questions -- and we especially urge you to use it to provide answers for others when you have them to offer.

How:

To subscribe, address a new email message to:

majordomo@listlink.berkeley.edu

This is the address for the listserv, the program that automates the mailing list.

Do not write anything in the "Subject" field--i.e. leave it blank. Your message to this address should contain exactly the following line, and only the following line:

If you're in section with...

Type the following message ...

Catherine Bullock

Ray Chandrasekara

Confirmation Notice:

You will receive a confirmation message within an hour which contains information about using your subscription. Be sure to keep a copy of this message. You'll need the information in the confirmation notice to make adjustments to your subscription in the the future should you so desire.

Sending Mail to Listserv:

All messages to the mailing list itself must be sent to the following address:

If you're in section with...

Send mail to:

Catherine Bullock

Ray Chandrasekara

Hey! Where's the email message I just sent to the LISTSERV?:

Please note now that you will not automatically receive copies of the mail you send to the list. If you wish to activate that option, read carefully through the message that you receive confirming your subscription. It explains how to set your subscription so that you get copies of your own messages.

Introduce Yourself to the List:

Once you have received confirmation of your subscription, send a message to the mailing list at the address above. Introduce yourself, and say a little bit about how you've found the class so far. If you need some help with something, this is a good time to ask!
