Discussion Lists

MOREnet discussion lists provide an e-mail message forum where people with similar interests may leave messages for an entire group, just by posting to one list e-mail address. To receive the messages, members simply subscribe to the list.

MOREnet discussion lists are operated by a software program called Mailman. Mailman can be thought of as a postman. It sends e-mail messages to the proper recipients and takes care of subscription requests, postings and list archives.

• Easy list management using Mailman software
  • Subscription control
