Listserv is a mailing list management system that enables the members of the Dartmouth College community to manage large or geographically dispersed groups of subscribers via email. It provides automatic processing of subscription and sign-off requests, archiving of postings, daily digests of postings, and control of the posting process. The software is licensed from L-Soft Corporation and is suitable for lists with potentially large or widely distributed subscribers, including non-Dartmouth.edu addresses.
