PBGSO Email Distribution List
We have established an email listserv for our group to allow easy and rapid communication about topics of interest to the group. Instructions on joining, leaving and sending messages are described below. Please address questions to the listowner: Brian Benscoter bbensc01@siu.edu
How a Subscriber Joins and Leaves PBGSO-L:
Subscription is set open, which allows anyone to self-subscribe to our list.
To subscribe to the list, send email to:
LISTSERV@SIU.EDU
The subject line can be ignored when communicating with LISTSERV.
The text of the email should contain the following command:
SUB PBGSO-L firstname lastname
For example:
To: listserv@siu.edu
From: John Doe <johndoe@siu.edu>
Subj:
--------------------------------
SUB PBGSO-L John Doe
After sending the above note, the person subscribing will receive a
subscription confirmation and will be added to the list.
If you wish to leave the list later, send another email to LISTSERV@SIU.EDU
and send the command:
UNSUB PBGSO-L
You will receive a removal confirmation and will be unsubscribed from the
list.
Sending Email to the List
Before communicating to the list, everyone, including the list owner,
must be subscribed to the list. List discussion is then achieved by sending
email to the list's email address.
For example:
PBGSO-L@SIU.EDU
The email should have a proper subject and contain text appropriate for
the list.
For example:
To: PBGSO-l@siu.edu
From: John Doe <johndoe@siu.edu>
Subj: First Posting
--------------------------------
This is my first posting to the list.
