For all predefined addresses, see: http://admin.engr.wisc.edu/IT/Email/EmailLists.php To send email to a department group, mail to: list/qualifiers@maillist.engr.wisc.edu Faculty and staff can be selected by department and/or title, using: payroll= dept = title = type where dept is one or more of the following: dept Department ADMIN BME CAE CBE CEE ECE ENGR EP EPD GEO ISYE LIB ME MSAE WENDT Administration Biomedical Engineering Computer Aided Engineering Center for Biological Education Civil and Environmental Engineering Electrical and Computer Engineering Engineering Engineering Physics Engineering Professional Development Geography ? Industrial and Systems Engineering Libraries ? Mechanical Engineering Material Science and Engineering Wendt Library and title is one or more staff or faculty titles with spaces, if any, replaced by underscores of: title Faculty Title APROF EPROF FACULTY GRAD LECT PA PROF RA STUDENT TA VPROF Associate Professor ? E Prof? All Faculty Graduates Lecturers? PA? Professor Research Assistant ? Student Teaching Assistant Visiting Professor ? and type is one or more of: type Recipients ACADEMICSTAFF CLASSIFIEDSTAFF FACULTY PERMSTAFF STUDENTSTAFF Academic Staff Calssified Staff Faculty Permanent Staff Student Staff (PERMSTAFF is everyone except the STUDENTSTAFF) Note: If you use more than one of something, join them using plus signs. If you use type, omit title by using two equal signs in a row. If you use title, omit the = type . For example: list/payroll=ME==FACULTY@maillist.engr.wisc.edu mails to all of the M.E. faculty members. To select by dept only, omit the = title = type part; to select by title or type only, use ENGR for the dept . Furthermore, a staff/faculty selection can be combined with a student selection by using a slash between them. For example: list/payroll=CHE/major=CHE=5@maillist.engr.wisc.edu mails to all faculty, staff, and graduate students in Chemical Engineering. COE Student Organization & Project Mailing Lists See https://www.cae.wisc.edu/mailman/ to subscribe to an existing COE (College of Engineering) mailing list. If your COE student organization, research group, center, or department would like to establish a new mailing list, contact mailman@cae.wisc.edu. College of Engineering Groups If everyone in a group is associated with the College of Engineering, you can set up a CAE group to which anyone can send mail. Members of the group can read their mail anywhere, but they must each open up a CAE account and set up an email forward with the address of their mailbox unless they receive their mail at CAE. To open a CAE account, go to https://www.cae.wisc.edu/accounts/newuser/ and follow the directions. One hour or more later, connect again and go to the "My Account" page (https://www.cae.wisc.edu/cae-auth/) (unless you want to receive your mail at CAE). Log in using the assigned login name. Under "email" at the left, click on “Change It” on the second line. Type in the address of your mailbox and click “Save Changes”. Once you have collected everyone's CAE login name, you create the CAE group. First, select a group name: up to eight lower case letters and digits starting with a letter. Make (create) the group using the Groups Memberships section of the "My Account" page (https://www.cae.wisc.edu/cae-auth/). Group changes take at least 1 hour to take affect. To send email to a group, mail to: group/group-name@cae.wisc.edu Groups do NOT have to be renewed each semester. We do automatically remove login names that no longer exist from the group and remove the group when it becomes empty. Make sure to respect people's privacy! While it is possible to send mail messages to large groups of people, such as every graduate student in a department, you should not send messages to such groups unless nearly everyone in the group would be interested. Quite simply, do not mass email:

• unauthorized questionnaires or announcements
• membership campaigns for groups not authorized by CAE
• solicitations of any kind: products, services, or donations
• messages which may be offensive or derogatory to any group
• political campaign messages
• a message with return-receipt on
• attachments (use clear text only)
