Dept's Mailing lists
This is a guide for adding updating and maintaining the departmental lists. We have the following departmental mailing lists:
- csstaff
- csfaculty
- cssupport
- csvisiting
- cstspecial
In order to update those lists the following steps must be taken according to the situation:
A new user is just added to the system in an already existing group
Just run the makealiases script on the mailserver
A new user added in a new group
First edit the aliasgroups file and put the new group in the appropriate list group
Then run the makealiases script on the mailserver
A New list needs to be created
Edit the aliasgroups file and add the name of the new list along with the appropriate groups (NIS groups) in the form
newlistname : nis_group1 nis_group2 ...
Edit the /etc/aliases file and add an include line with the newly created list in the form:
newlistname: :include:/path/to/newlistname
Run the makealiases script
