The Associations major feature is the AIUA List Serve were people working and interested in the Agriculture Industry can freely exchange ideas and information with one another. What is a List Serve? List Serve refers both to a mailing service for discussion groups/electronic conferences and the discussion groups (or lists) themselves. You must formally subscribe to a List Serve. Messages are then sent directly to your e-mail account where you can read, delete or save them. An active discussion list can result in numerous messages everyday so be sure to check your e-mail account regularly, delete unwanted messages. List Serve Addresses Each list has two addresses; the List Serve host address (ListServe@AIUA.org and the listname address (AgTech@AIUA.org). The List Serve host is used for subscribing and unsubscribing to the discussion list. The list name address is used for sending messages to the discussion list. List Serve host addresses are easily recognizable because they begin with the name "List Serve". Subscription to a list is done to the List Serve program on the host computer, as shown below. Sending Messages to the List To participate in a discussion group, you can either reply to all the subscribers on a list, reply to the individual originating the message, or compose a new message and send it to the listname address A List Serve is a way to bring people with similar interests together for a free exchange of ideas and information. When you subscribe to a list, all mail sent to that list is then forwarded to all users subscribed to that list. In this way, questions you have can be sent out to the list, then if someone has an answer they can then send it back to the list. More Information is below, and a list of commands that can be sent to ListServe@AIUA.org can be found at the bottom.
