Listservs
Listservs are a vital communication tool in the Eller College. ALL students need to subscribe to a list as all important academic and registration information is sent over listservs, as well as information on club events, internships, scholarship opportunities, and careers.

Registering for an Email Account
To maintain your list membership, you must have a valid email.arizona.edu account. To obtain an account:
- Enter the URL http://account.arizona.edu.
- Click on Account.
- Click on Begin Account Process.
- Select Mail if you only need an email address.
- Select Menu if you will be using other computer services (compilers, web pages, etc.). If you aren't sure at this point, select Mail only; you can add access to the other services later.
- Continue the process, selecting your account name and password. Write them somewhere for reference when you need them and store this information in a safe place to prevent unauthorized access to your account. Your account will be kept active as long as you are enrolled at UA, or under Leave of Absence.
Adding Yourself to an Eller College Listserv
The names of the lists are ACCT, BMGT, BNEC, CRIM, FIN, HHS, MIS, MKTG, OPER, PMGT, and PRBN (Pre-Business.) Select the name which corresponds to your major. Students who don't yet have professional admission must select the PRBN listserv, as certain messages are sent only to this list. You may also subscribe to a "major" list, if you like.To subscribe:
- Access your email.arizona.edu account by pointing your browser to http://email.arizona.edu. You will be prompted for the account name and password which you selected when you set up your account.
- Select Compose Mail to send a message to listserv@listserv.arizona.edu
- In the body of the message include the following text:
SUB listname Firstname Lastname
where "listname" is one of the lists given above and "Firstname Lastname" represents your first and last names. For example,
SUB MKTG John Doe
would subscribe John Doe to the list for Marketing majors. Individual departments send information according to major; the College sends all information to all major lists.
Forwarding Your UA Email to a Non-UA Account
We encourage you not to forward your email.arizona.edu account to other email providers (i.e. Hotmail, Yahoo, AOL, etc.) as often times our messages do not forward easily. Since the listserv is a college-wide communication tool and a bulk message, other email providers often kick back our messages or immediately send it to your trash folders. We hope that you receive all important messages and encourage you to check your email.arizona.edu account daily.
To Remove Yourself from a List
Send a message to listserv@listserv.arizona.edu with the message: SIGNOFF listname where "listname" is the name of the list you are currently on.
