Posted Date: 01 Dec 2008

Modified Date: 28 Dec 2008

Effective Date: 25 Dec 2008

NU Listserv, the e-mail list management service for the University, was successfully upgraded on Sunday, December 28, 2008.

The new features and enhanced functionality of NU Listserv provide users with a more efficient and secure means of list management.

Impact on End User

List owners and subscribers will notice a new self-service Web interface that will better facilitate management of list subscriptions. Additional upgrade enhancements include:

  • Full support for rich-text/HTML messages
  • Larger messages – up to 1 MB
  • Invalid addresses are automatically unsubscribed from lists
  • Addresses will appear in uppercase
  • Greater junk e-mail filtering and virus protection

Northwestern University Information Technology scheduled two Webinars for list owners to become familiar with the new Listserv Web interface. The December 18, 2008 Webinar gave list owners a demonstration of the new self-service tool. On January 14, 2009, a repeat Webinar will be presented. Owners with valid NetIDs may register to attend.
