Main Menu items

The web interface uses a common look across all its pages, so familiarizing yourself with the general layout of the system will allow you to more easily use all of its functions.

Main Menu Items

Along the top of the page, just beneath the main title, is the main menu. It contains the following links:

  • Create list button Create List If you are logged in to the server, then you will see this link on the menu. It will take you to a form you can fill out requesting a new mailing list. Note: You need to be a newcastle.ac.uk user for a list request to be processed.
  • List of List menu button List of Lists This link will take you to a listing of all the publicly viewable lists that are hosted on the system.
