Setting up a New List

Mailing list services are available to Law School faculty and staff and student organizations. Lists will be in the format listname@law.wisc.edu

Each list must have a "list owner," who is responsible for adding/removing list members and who will receive any "bounced" mail sent to the list.

To request a new list, please complete the following information and click "Submit." You (and the list owner) should receive a response within 2-3 working days.

Your Name:

Your E-mail Address:

Your Affiliation: Faculty/Instructor Staff Student Organization

Name of List:
(This is the part that appears before "@law.wisc.edu". It should be between 3-15 characters and cannot contain spaces or periods.)

Name of List Owner (if different from above):
(The "list owner" is responsible for adding and removing members from the list.)

E-mail address of List Owner (if different from above):

Managing an Existing List

Mailing list administrative functions can now be performed via the web at http://library.law.wisc.edu/itcoord/listadmin/

Mailing lists are managed by e-mail commands. The web interface facilitates the sending of these administrative commands to the mailing list server. Confirmation of your actions will arrive via your e-mail; they will not be visible in the web browser.

If you are managing a brand new list, your first order of business should be to change the default password to something else via the "Change Admin Password" command. Second, you should subscribe yourself to the list. Until you do, you will not be able to send or receive mail to/from the list.

Subscribing or removing other addresses to/from the list can also be done via the web interface. You can add/remove multiple addresses at a time provided they are separated by a comma.
