Mailing lists at UW Oshkosh are controlled by mailing list management software called GNU Mailman. This software allows list owners to control settings and manage user subscriptions for their list. Users may also interact with Mailman to subscribe and unsubscribe from mailing lists. All interaction can be done through the web-based interface provided by the Mailman software.

Benefits

• Allows for sending mail to large groups of users, either as announcement type list or for discussion
• Messages are addressed to the list and distributed to members, instead of having to CC/BCC members

Requirements
