ListServ is a commercial software product installed on Hamilton College's email system. It is designed to provide an easy way to create and maintain large or specialized email mailing lists. These lists can be used for email based distribution of information, discussion, questions and answers, etc. Lists are created and "owned" by an email user who manages the list's behavior. Members of the list are subscribed to it either by the list owner or by following instructions provided by the list owner.
