What is Mailman?
Mailman is a Web-based email distribution list manager. With an email
distribution list, you can send an email message to a single address and
have it automatically distributed to any number of predetermined
addresses.
Mailman allows list owners to create and modify lists easily as well
as add and remove subscribers without having to know specific commands.
List subscribers can easily modify their list subscriptions and
preferences.
You can request that a new Mailman list be created for you by
submitting a Mailman List Request
Form.

moderators, and subscribers.

Public Mailman Lists at the UW

Here you will find a list of publicly viewable Mailman lists on
UW Technology's Mailman server. Please note that some list owners
choose to keep their Mailman lists private, so those lists are not
listed here. Some departments on campus may have
their own servers so their lists will not be listed here either.
