Edusafe is proud to sponsor the following listserv e-mail lists for K-12 educators.  We have setup 3 lists.  The first list is for Technology Coordinators and Network Admins.  The second for teachers and the third for principals, superintendents and other K-12 administrators.

Please feel free to use these listserv's for any education related communication to the other list members.  Job tips, technology questions, how to deal with a rowdy class, horse trading between schools or selling items your school no longer needs or uses..  These are all examples of what you can do.. 

Please do not sign up if you are a vendor trying to hock you goods to our listserv members.  You will be removed and your domain blocked.

What is a mailing list?

Using this service, you will be able to send e-mails to multiple recipients, included in this list.

 

How mailing lists work?
In order to send an e-mail to the mailing list, you must be a member of this mailing list. Each e-mail message from the administrator or any of the members is being processed by the mailing list and sent to all its subscribers.
When a subscriber replies to this e-mail message, the reply will be sent back to the sender of the original message only. Of course, there is a possibility for each mailing list to be reconfigured such that all replies will also be transmitted to all mailing list subscribers.

 

How to send an e-mail to all mailing list subscribers?
In order to send an e-mail or a newsletter to all mailing list subscribers you must:
1. be a member of this mailing list
2. send an e-mail to the address of the mailing list.

Getting more help.
To contact the owner of a specific list, for instance, to contact the list owner for  This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it ,  you would send mail to:  This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it  
To get a copy of the help message, send mail to  This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it with a line in the message body saying:
help

 

Retrieving files from a list's archives.
To find out if a list has any files associated with it, send the "index" command in the body of an e-mail message to  This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it :
index maillist-name
If you see files in which you're interested, you may retrieve them by sending the "get" command followed by the name of the list and archive filename in the body of an e-mail message to  This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it :
get maillist-name profile.form
get maillist-name maillist-name.9611

 

Finding out who's subscribed to a list
To get a list of the addresses subscribed to a particular list, send the "who" command, followed by the name of the list in the body of an e-mail message to  This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it :
who maillist-name

 

Finding the lists to which an address is subscribed.
To find the lists to which your address is subscribed, send this command in the body of an e-mail message to  This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it :
which
To find which users at my-isp.com are subscribed to which lists, you should send the command.

Unsubscribe from mailing lists.
Your original intro message contains the exact command, which should be used to remove your address from the list. The command is:
unsubscribe maillist-name
Send this command in the body of an e-mail message to  This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it .
To remove an address other than the one from which you're sending the request, give that address in the command:
unsubscribe maillist-name  This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it
Send this command in the body of an e-mail message to  This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it .
In either of these cases, you can tell  This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it to remove the address in question from all lists on this server by using "*" in place of the list name:
unsubscribe *
unsubscribe *  This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it

 

Subscribing to a list.
Once you've determined that you wish to subscribe to one or more lists on this system, you can send commands to Majordomo to add you to the list, so you can begin receiving mailings.
To receive list mail at the address from which you are sending your mail, simply type "subscribe" followed by the list's name:
subscribe maillist-name
Send this command in the body of an e-mail message to This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it .
If you are sending the request from another mail account, but wish to receive list mail at your personal account (for which we will use  This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it as an example), you would put the following line in the mail message body:
subscribe maillist-name  This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it
Send this command to  This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it
A message will be sent to the address to be subscribed (which may or may not coincide with the one you are currently using) containing the key, and directing the user to send a command found in that message back to  This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it .
Upon subscribing, you should receive an introductory message, containing list policies and features. Save this message for future reference; it will also contain exact directions for unsubscribing. If you lose the intro mail and would like another copy of the policies, send this in the body of an e-mail message to  This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it :
intro maillist-name

 

Finding out which lists are on this system.
To get a list of publicly-available mailing lists on this system, put the following line in the body of your mail message to  This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it :
lists
To get more information about a particular list, send the "info" command, followed by the name of the list to  This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it . For example, if the name of the list about which you wish information is "maillist-name", you would put this line in the body of the mail message:
info maillist-name

 

General description of the mailing lists system
Majordomo is an automated system, which allows users to subscribe and unsubscribe to mailing lists, and to retrieve files from list archives. You can interact with the Majordomo software by sending it commands in the body of mail messages addressed to  This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it
Please do not put your commands on the subject line - only in the message body! Majordomo does not process commands in the subject line.
You may put multiple Majordomo commands in the same mail message. Put each command on a line by itself.
If you use a "signature block" at the end of your mail, Majordomo may mistakenly believe each line of your message is a command; you will then receive false error messages. To avoid this, either put a line starting with a hyphen ("-") before your signature, or put a line with just the word:
end

 

Can I have my own list?
Do you need a listserv list for your district or for specific schools?  Listserv's are a great way of managing correspondence to multiple recipients.  Listserv's are especially useful in emergency situations when you need to pass information to as many people as you can in the shortest amount of time.  E-mail, while not a solution in and of itself, is just one tool in your arsenal, and listserv's make it easy.  If you would like a listserv for your school, please e-mail  This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it .  Listserv's are offered free of charge for K-12 schools.  Be advised that edusafe.us does reserve the right to be a member of your listserv, so that we can update your list members with edusafe.us news and information.

Edusafe.us cannot guarantee the timely delivery of messages VIA the listserv's we are hosting.  While most messages are delivered to users mailboxes within minutes, there are just too many variables in this technology to guarantee delivery, as with all e-mail based system.  Spam blockers, internet outages, DNS errors can all cause delays or losses in e-mail delivery.  We also cannot guarantee that the messages that are delivered VIA the listserv's are on topic or are not spam.  We will make every effort to prevent spammers from abusing the mail lists and will delete them when discovered.  Please contact This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it to report any spam activity.
