Request a Full-Featured Mailing List

  • There are two types of full featured mailing lists. First is an open mailing list; the second a restricted mailing list. You must first determine which type of mailing list you need. The differences are listed below. 

    A full featured open mailing list has these features:

    • Anyone can subscribe and anyone can post.
    • The list owner can also subscribes and unsubscribe.

    A full featured restricted mailing list has these features:

    • The list owner moderates subscriptions.
    • Only subscribers can send/receive messages and view the message archives.

    If you wish to request a Full Featured Mailing List, please follow the steps below:

    1. In the Request Form below, you will be prompted for the information regarding the list, starting with List Name. List Name must follow these rules:
      • Must contain at least one dash (or hyphen)
      • Must be a minimum of three but no more than 40 characters long
      • Must begin with a letter
      • Must end with a letter or number
      • Must consist of only letters, numbers, dashes
