E-lists at Cornell
Which E-lists are Hosted by CIT?
CIT hosts more than 3500 different e-lists (serving more than 400,000
members). There are millions of lists hosted in other places. So how
do you tell whether these web pages apply to the list you're interested
in? A quick look at the e-mail address of the list will tell you. If
the address ends with
-L@cornell.edu
then you're dealing with a CIT-hosted list. Here are some examples:
Hosted by CIT
|
Not Hosted by CIT
|
Explanation
|
STUDENTS-L@cornell.edu |
STUDENTS-L@law.cornell.edu |
The address after the @ sign has to be just "cornell.edu"
not "something.cornell.edu"
Lists with a something.cornell.edu-style address are hosted
by an individual school or unit at Cornell, but not CIT.
|
CIT-alert-L@cornell.edu |
limnological@cornell.edu |
The "limnological" address doesn't have
"-L" just before the @ sign, |
class-of-1935-L@cornell.edu |
CU-1935-L@cornellclub.edu |
The domain name has to be "cornell.edu"
and not just something close to it |
sheep-farmer-L@cornell.edu |
sheep-farmer@ranch.org |
Not even close...! |
CIT does not provide a method of seeing a listing of ALL CIT-hosted
e-lists. Making this information publicly available would expose
our e-list service to increased spam and abuse. If you are interested
in a particular topic, contact the department most likely to host
a list on that topic, or ask someone who is in that field.
