How to Use the mail list

 

You can also use the web method to subscribe to the Mail list. Here we will talk about how to subscribe to and manage the mail list by mail.
Assume that we already know the address of the Mail List, take the westdc-report@lists.westgis.ac.cn (data Mailing List) as an example, and assume that the mail list administrator is mailman.
I. Introduction to the Mail List

The Mail list is also called mailing list. It is an important tool on the Internet for information exchange and publishing among various groups.

The email list has a wide range of transmission features. It can quickly send messages to hundreds of thousands of users on the Internet. The transmission mode can be the host's speech, free discussion and authorization of the speaker's speech.

The Mail List is easy to use. You can use the mail list as long as you can use email.

Ii. Detailed functions
1. How to subscribe
To subscribe to a mail list, send e-mail to list name-subscribe@lists.westgis.ac.cn. For example:

Send email

Westdc-report-subscribe@lists.westgis.ac.cn

Then, after receiving the email returned from the email list, you can directly reply to the list of emails subscribed to by westdc-report.
2. How to unsettle
If you want to cancel the subscription, please send an email to <list Name>-Unsubscribe-<your address> @ lists.westgis.ac.cn, replace "@" with the character "= "@", for example, if your e-mail address is a me@mydomain.com, the following is an example:

Westdc-Report-Unsubscribe-Me = mydomain.com@lists.westgis.ac.cn

Iii. Notes
1. Please do not use the email's automatic reply to the email list address!
First, it is a courtesy question, because the content you automatically reply to will be sent to everyone in the email list. Second, if multiple users use automatic reply, it will lead to the effect of similar email bombs.
2. Do not send a return request to the email list.
It is also a matter of courtesy. You can refer to the preceding Method for sending a bounce request. You can also use the web interface or send a Bounce Message to the email list administrator.
