Many clubs and organizations have email lists that are sponsored by the Computer Center. There is only one person that is the administrator of any given list and that person can be contacted by emailing listname-owner@knox.edu or owner-listname@knox.edu.


I'm a list admin ... now what?

Finding the List You Wish to Administer

  1. Log in to WebMail.
  2. In the upper right corner of the WebMail window, click on the List Administration link.
  3. A new window will appear. Enter your E-mail user name in the Username: text box and your E-mail password in the Password: text box. Click the Log In button.
  4. Once logged in, you will be taken to the List Administration screen. The list which you have administrative rights over will appear under the Name: heading.
    • If you have a number of lists that you administer, you can use the Search function at the top of the window to find a specific list you are looking for by entering the desired list name in the text box to the right of the Search heading and clicking on the Search button.
    • To search for a different list, click on the Clear button to reset the list search results list and display all available list names.
  1. Once you find the list you wish to administer, click on the list name link under the Name: heading.
    • The Add has no function for individual list administration.
    • If you wish to delete your list, you may do so by checking the box to the left of the list name and clicking the Delete button. Be very careful with this function. Once you delete a list, it is totally removed from the server including the list of all member addresses. Depending on the timing, the most recent list of your list members MAY NOT be retrievable from a backup.
