Mailing Lists

We manage CQLS user mail lists in Outlook or with the Mailman application.We are in the process of moving to the Outlook system.  Mailman or Outlook allows users to subscribe and unsubscribe from a given list through a web interface. You may join or leave a list or contact us to be added to a list. 

Typically, list members can send mail directly to a list. Mail from non-members will be moderated, meaning that someone at the CQLS will determine if the mail should be sent to the list or deleted.

Occasionally, the email address of a list member is used by a third party or computer virus to spam an email list. In that event, that email address will be deleted from the mail list. We will advise the list member and ask them to resubscribe with a new email address.

Directions to Join or Leave an Outlook list below table.
