Subscribe to the mailing lists

If you want to keep up with club events, activities and discussions then you want to be on the email mailing lists. The volume of email you'll receive varies strongly with time. It often jumps sharply during study breaks. When a frank exchange of views takes place (a.k.a. a flame war10) your mail box may be flooded with twenty messages in twenty minutes -- but don't worry about it. Most of the email will be fun to read!

Table 2 contains a brief description of the first mailing lists you may wish to join.


Table 2: Main UCC Mailing Lists
[email protected] This is the main UCC mailing list. You'll receive email about practically any topic if you subscribe, as well as general UCC announcements. All subscribers may post to this list.
[email protected] Special UCC announcements are posted here. All members with accounts are subscribed to the list. Only list administrators may post to it.
[email protected] A list for the public discussion of committee activities and decisions. All members may subscribe to this. There is also a separate committee-only mailing list [email protected].
[email protected] A list for the public discussion of technical issues at the club. Any non security-sensitive discussions can be carried out here.

To join these lists visit the UCC's Mailman website11.
