Restructured Extension Listserv ListsandOutlook:Creating Rules and Tips By: Greg Price, Northwest District Director and Brenda Rodgers, CAES OIT
Objectives • Review restructured Extension Listserv Lists • Review Usage Recommendations and Guidelines • Review charts of Lists • Outlook • Create & Edit Rules to Manage Email • Learn Tips to Organize Inbox
Restructured – Why? • To reduce number of emails received by all • To better target Program Areas • To allow for more efficient and accurate management of lists at the District level
Reduction in Emails • Using lists based on program areas will allow for more targeted audiences • Standardization of list names will increase ease of use and benefit creating Outlook Rules • Outlook Rules will enable emails to automatically be moved to folders or forwarded to others – reducing inbox clutter
Target Program Areas • Everyone is assigned to a specific Program Area and title ‘Foundation’ list within District, ex. NEANRAGT • Choose listserv list based on target audience • Can choose Extension and State lists by program area • Can choose specific district lists by program area
Managed at District Level • Reduces time of management at all levels • Decreases inaccuracies on all lists since name is added to only one foundation list at district level • Decreases time to add new employees or remove employees from lists

EXTALL Usage Guidelines • Use for Official business only • Significant information of interest to ALL program areas at State and County levels • Limited service interruptions for a single office or person should be communicated at District or Departmental levels instead of EXTALL
EXTALL - Moderated ListUsage Guidelines • Managed by an Moderator • Approval is based on email content and whether the email was sent to the most appropriate list • Moderator must approve email before it is sent to EXTALL • Moderator will inform sender if email is rejected for EXTALL • Target your emails to the appropriate Program Areas
EXTANNOUNCEUsage Guidelines • Use this list to distribute non-business information of interest to all Extension employees • Personal information concerning a death or sickness of an employee’s family should only be shared with the employee’s permission and limited to immediate family • Do not send information on personal ‘For Sale’ items
General Usage Guidelines • Choose ONE list that targets your audience • To send to a list enter the list name followed by @listserv.uga.edu, or • Click on the name of the list on the ‘Listserv Description’ web page and a ‘mail to:’ window will appear
