Change how people reply to list messages on IU List

Important:
Indiana University will be transitioning to a single email domain, iu.edu, between now and the end of 2025. For more about the transition, see One Mail. For details about the impact to IU List specifically, see Changes to IU List from the One Mail initiative. For general actions you may need to take, see Prepare for One Mail at IU.

When you create a new mailing list on IU List, the option you select from the request form determines the default reply-to value for the list. For the "Public Mailing List" and "Private Mailing List" options (which by default allow subscribers, as well as owners or editors, to post), the default setting is for all replies to list messages to go to the entire list, rather than to the sender. List owners can change this setting to allow off-list replies, as follows.

Note:
Only list owners can perform the actions described below.
  1. Log into the campus IU List website for your list:
    Campus IU List web interface
    IU Bloomington https://list.indiana.edu/
    IU Indianapolis https://list.iupui.edu/
    IU Columbus https://list.iupuc.edu/
    IU East https://list.iue.edu/
    IU Kokomo https://list.iuk.edu/
    IU Northwest https://list.iun.edu/
    IU South Bend https://list.iusb.edu/
    IU Southeast https://list.ius.edu/
    University-wide https://list.iu.edu/

  2. Select My lists, and choose the name of a list.

  3. In the left pane, select Admin.
  4. Under "Edit List Config", choose Sending/receiving setup.
  5. Below "Reply address", in the "value" box, select sender, list, all (that is, both the sender and the list), or other email address. If you choose the last option, fill in the email address replies should go to in the "other email address" field.
  6. At the bottom of the page, select Apply modifications.
