MCCNet currently runs several listservs for use by various groups within the state.
This page gives some helpful information on how to access and use these lists.
Available Mailing Lists
The following are the available mailing lists. Use the List Name below when
subscribing or unsubscribing from a list.
Subscribing to a List There are several easy steps to follow to subscribe
to a mailing list:
- Send an E-mail message to the List Owner listed above,
- The Subject: of your message should be SUB Listname
- On the first line of the message, type subscribe listname email@address
i.e., if you wanted to subscribe to the mlad list, you'd send an E-mail to
burker1@michigan.gov and for the SUBJECT you'd type: SUB mlad and
in the body of the mesage, you'd type subscribe mlad youremail@address
- Next, send the message. Once it has been approved and you've been added, you'll
be sent further instructions on how to use the listserv
Un-Subscribing from a List There are several easy steps to follow to unsubscribe
from a mailing list:
- Send an E-mail message to the Listserv command center at Listserv@michiganops.net
- The Subject: of your message should be UNSUB Listname
- On the first line of the message, type unsubscribe Listname
i.e., if you wanted to unsubscribe to the mlad list, you'd send an E-mail
message to Listserv@michiganops.net and for the SUBJECT you'd type: UNSUB mlad
and in the body of the message, you'd type unsubscribe mlad
- Next, send the message. Once it has been processed and you've been unsubscribed,
you'll be sent a confirmation message.
Using the Mailing Lists Once you are subscribed, you can send e-mail directly
to everyone on the list by addressing your correspondence to listname@michiganops.net.
For instance, you would send mail to mlad@michiganops.net if you were on the
mlad mailing list. The following are some hints and tips to keep in mind when using
mailing lists:
- Always send administrative requests to Listserv@michiganops.net Use the actual list
address for list correspondence only
- Remember that everything, including replies, are sent to everyone on the list, so
if you wish to reply to an individual, use his/her address, not the lists, in your
reply
- Always unsubscribe from listservs before going on vacation if you use a "vacation
message". Better still, avoid using "vacation messages" altogether, as they usually
cause more problems than they cure.
Finding Out Who is on a Specific List In order to find out who is subscribed
to a specific list, follow these instructions:
- Send an E-mail message to Listserv@michiganops.net
- Leave the Subject: of your message blank
- On the first line of the message, type list listname
i.e., if you wanted to do a who on the mdec list,
you'd type:
list mdec
-
Send the message. You will receive a listing of users back from the server usually
within a matter of minutes.
