SUBSCRIBING TO THE LIST SERVER:

CCFFR has a NEW E-MAIL list-server. It is attached to the horrible Office 365 system because Dal climbed into bed with Microsoft and their bloatware. It is thus clunky and not pretty.
To have your name added to the list go to:

https://listserv.dal.ca/index.cgi?A0=CCFFR

Search the list for CCFFR and select it. Then you can:
1) Join or Leave the list

2) Try to log in with your earlier subscribed email address, but you will have to ask for a new password as the list was imported from the old GNU list-server and thus no passwords accompany the list.

non-institutional email addresses will be rejected.




POSTING A MESSAGE TO THE LIST SERVER

If you wish to post an announcement (jobs, conferences etc.) to be sent to all CCFFR subscribers, then send your text message by email to:

ccffr@Phys.Ocean.Dal.Ca


PLEASE NOTE THE FOLLOWING INSTRUCTIONS FOR POSTING:

  • 1. You MUST be a Subscribed Member (see above and below).

  • 2. Put your posting topic/subject in the SUBJECT-line of your email posting.

  • 3. Do not "ask" in the email, or subject-line, to for example: "please post this" (you are communicating with a machine) - it will look silly when people on the list receive it.

  • 4. Your message WILL NOT be posted if it contains attachments.

  • 5. Your message WILL NOT be posted if it contains greetings/requests/instructions to the mailman (see 3 above).

  • 6. Your message WILL NOT be posted if it does not contain an informative subject line (see 2 above).

  • 7. Your message must be in ASCII character text format (e.g. "txt" format) NOT "html" format (i.e. check you mailer settings).

    ***NOTE*** if your posting "goes into the ether" it may be because your email address in the subscription list is not the same as the address you are now using to post the message. Also, a local alias address will not work if the alias is not in the subscription list. To remedy, unsubscribe your old/alias address and resubscribe your new/real address.
