UMR IT Updates Listserv

UMR IT will be applying a significant update to the listserv email environment on Thursday, December 21, 2006, from 10 p.m. until 2 a.m., Friday.

Here is a summary of the changes:

On December 21, 2006, listserv list email addresses will be changed to the “lists.umr.edu” domain instead of the “umr.edu” domain – for example, stunews@umr.edu will become stunews@lists.umr.edu
The change to listserv email address will NOT work until December 21. Customers will still need to send to the current listserv email address until that time.
The old listserv email address will continue to function until the end of the Spring Semester 2007, at which time only the new address will function.
Customers who use email filtering rules to send email to certain folders based on the sender’s email address will need to change the rule to reflect the new email address from listserv lists.
New listserv lists created after December 21 will be created with the “lists.umr.edu” domain in the email address.

These changes are designed to improve the functionality of UMR’s listserv email handling and members of UMR listserv lists may see a reduction in spam email.
