Mailing Lists
CLAS users receive email from many sources, and addressed to a variety of different email addresses which all converge on your account. Most every CLAS user is automatically subscribed to at least one list when their account is created.
Exchange Distribution lists
Exchange lists are commonly used for "internal" communications, primarily within a department or center. The CLAS Dean's Office also uses such lists to send out announcements for all faculty or staff within a specific unit, or across the college. The unit's computer contact or office manager is responsible for keeping these lists up to date via Microsoft Outlook or Entourage.
To update these lists via Outlook:
- Select the Tools menu
- Select Address Book...
- Ensure Global Addressbook is selected from the drop-down
- Type in ". CLAS-" into the search bar. Note that is "dot space" at the start of the name.
- Select your department's mailing list and double-click
- Select Modify Members... on the lower right.
- You may now Add or Remove individuals from the UF global addressbook.
- Select OK when done to save your updates.
ListServ Mailing Lists
CNS offers the ListServ software at www.lists.ufl.edu. From there, you may manage your existing lists, or request the creation of a new one.
