Introduction

Email (mailing) lists let you easily send email to multiple people. There are different types of mailing list and membership may depend on your role at the University or personal preference.

There are three types of mailing lists at the University; mandatory, managed and subscription.

Mandatory

Membership of mandatory lists is a consequence of your role. For example, there are lists for students on a particular course and all staff in a particular department.
