EMail Lists

From PCSAR

Revision as of 21:24, 4 January 2013

PCSAR maintains many electronic mailing lists to make communication work smoothly.

Viruses are automatically blocked. Spam (unsolicited commercial e-mail) is not blocked.

The address of each mailing list is of the form xxxxxx@castrov.cuug.ab.ca. The xxxxxx is listed below. (I don't list the full address each time so as to minimize the spam).

pcsar

is the official published contact for PCSAR. Mail to that address is automatically forwarded to pcsar-board.

pcsar-announce

The address for announcements of PCSAR activities. Announcements of activities hosted by external organizations (non-PCSAR activities) should go to pcsar-members instead.

Messages sent to this address are automatically forwarded to both pcsar-members and pcsar-external. If you don't have permission to post to pcsar-external, you may get a bounce from that list while at the same time the message goes through on pcsar-members.

pcsar-board

goes to all board members, plus

• RCMP liaison

pcsar-caller

goes to members of the PCSAR call-out committee.

pcsar-equip

goes to the members of the equipment committee.

pcsar-fund

goes to the members of the PCSAR fundraising committee.

pcsar-external

key people outside our organization that have asked to be kept informed of our events:

• contacts in LASARA, SEASAR, Foothills SAR, ACRO
• Waterton Parks
• CNP RCMP
• several others that want to know about our events

You can add yourself to this list at http://castrov.dyndns.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pcsar-external

Don't assume that any particular individual is still on the list. If you want to invite a person or group to one of our events, contact them explicitly.

You are added to this list when you update your personnel record with your e-mail address.
