Issue

Some lists have deans and other executives on the owner and editor list, or others, who do not wish to receive ListServ communications.

Environment

  • ListServ
  • Web Browser

Resolution

NOTE: This article is intended for List Owners. The "Quiet," modifier for a List makes it so that email addresses "below" it are silenced; they will not get official notifications from ListServ. For example, when you subscribe or un-subscribe email addresses. Or if there are sending errors. Quiet will silence ALL ListServ notifications for a given list. 

  1. Go to Lists.psu.edu
  2. Log into List Moderation Interface.
  3. Click on List Configuration.
  4. Select which list you want to make the change to from the drop down menu. 
  5. Click on Manual List Configuration.
  6. In the Owners= section - side note: there may be editors and/or moderators listed there. These may be "co-mingled" as needed. Meaning you may order your Access Controls however you desire. 
  7. Find where you want to separate those who want to/need to receive notifications, and make a new space between them. 
  8. Enter in the new space: "Quiet:," (Without quotation marks.)
  9. Click on Save at the bottom right.
