Send a message to a list


Lists are configured many different ways for discussion. The easiest way is to send a message to a list through your own email.  

IMPORTANT: Remember, when you send email to the list, everyone on the list (including the list owner) will receive your message. If you want to send email only to the list owner, see our instructions on contacting a list owner.

Through your own email

  1. Log into your email.
  2. Compose a message to listname-L@listserv.utoronto.ca, where listname is the name of the list. For example, if the name of the list is CHEM230-L, type CHEM230-L@listserv.utoronto.ca in the To field.
  3. Note; If you are already subscribed to a list, the list address will usually be shown in the "To" or sometime in the "Sender" field of the email header. 

Note: Some lists may not allow you to send everyone email. When you join a list, you are usually informed of the list’s email options.
