Information about E-mail lists

Lists allow email discussions among a group of people. Instead of sending a mail message to one person, you send the message to an email address that identifies the list. The message is then redistributed to everyone who reads (or subscribes to) the list. Reading a list is a matter of reading your email.

The name of the electronic mailing list for our class is "inls131-1" and it resides on the central campus list server, the address of which is "listserv.unc.edu"

Send mail to the entire class by addressing your mail to

inls131-1@listserv.unc.edu

Subscribe to the list by

• filling out a WWW form
  

  or

• sending an e-mail message to listserv@unc.edu with the message

  subscribe inls131-1 firstname lastname

  substituting your first and last names in the message.

Questions? send mail to Anne Parker (Be sure to sign your name and e-mail address.)
