In LISTSERV, what information do new subscribers receive?

New LISTSERV subscribers typically receive several informational pieces of email. The most common are a standard note containing LISTSERV information, an optional welcome message, and the LISTSERV Usage Guidelines.

The standard LISTSERV information message usually contains:

  • Notification that the subscriber has been added to the list

  • Information about LISTSERV

  • Specifics about the given list

  • Instructions for how to unsubscribe from the list

The welcome message is optional. If the list owner has created a welcome message, then LISTSERV can send new subscribers a copy of that message, as well as its own administrative notice. The welcome message may contain information about the list charter and rules of etiquette, or it may simply be a message welcoming the user to the list.
