On my LISTSERV list, how can I transfer ownership to another person?

To transfer ownership of your LISTSERV mailing list, first add an owner to the list, and then remove yourself as owner. For instructions, see On my LISTSERV list, how do I add an owner? and On my LISTSERV list, how can I modify the list header?

Note: Make sure you leave yourself as an owner until you have verified that the new owner can access and modify the list header.

At Indiana University, you can also transfer ownership of a LISTSERV list if the owner has left the university and can no longer be contacted. To do so, a departmental director, manager, or secretary must email LISTSERV Support with the transfer request in the message. It should include the list name, plus the new owner's full name, department, campus phone and address, and email address.

Note: At IU, all LISTSERV lists must be owned by an individual with an active IU Network ID. For other usage standards, see At IU, what are the usage standards for LISTSERV?
