New Mailing List Service

by

IRIS is pleased to announced the availability of a new mailing list
service for the Department. Over the last few months, many official department lists have been migrated to this new service, and we are now opening it up to the community at large. Anyone with a standard EECS computer account can login to this server to see which department lists they are on, manage those subscriptions, or create and manage their own lists.

See the
online documentation on the IRIS website for details on how to access the service.

Anyone who currently manages a list on the old majordomo server is encouraged to migrate that list to the new service. For assistance with this migration, contact help@eecs.

Don’t currently have your spam and virus e-mail automatically filtered by the imap server? Head on over to the automatic e-mail filtering page and “opt-in.”
