Only approved faculty and staff can access what we call Restricted mailing lists.
Restricted lists are groups of student, staff and faculty email addresses organized by pre-set criteria like program, major, school or on-campus residence. These lists are created in Google Groups and updated automatically. To request a new Restricted mailing list, contact OIT Support.
There are three tiers of access for these lists:
- Owners: Owners serve as admins who can modify and send to a list or add moderators.
- Moderators: Moderators can send mail to a Restricted list but cannot modify it.
- General Users: General users are part of a mailing list and receive messages sent to that address.
You can find out if you have access to a Restricted list by logging in at groups.google.com with your university username and password. Restricted lists will include groups at the end of their name, such as “coolstaff.groups@stedwards.edu”.
Mailing a List
To mail to a list you're an owner or moderator of, simply send an email to the group address. If you do not have access to send to the list, your email will fail to deliver.
