The information provided below should help users better understand the capability and limitations of TAMU’s email distribution list services.
JRSO Distribution Lists
JRSO ship and shore distribution lists are customer-owned and either maintained by list owners or our IT infrastructure/MCS teams. All list questions, corrections, concerns, etc. should be forwarded via email to change_of_address@iodp.tamu.edu.
A table of JRSO shore and ship distribution lists is maintained for customer viewing at https://goo.gl/3UshU4 andhttps://goo.gl/q8aGR6. These tables are compiled into one table and shown below as of 16 July 2018.
Use of JRSO Shore and Ship Distribution Lists
Most shore and ship JRSO distribution lists are closed to the public as recommended by TAMU’s Division of IT. This means email sent to a closed shore list from any address other than a JRSO shore email address (name@iodp.tamu.edu) will bounce. Examples of emails that will bounce include:name@ship.iodp.tamu.edu, name@gmail.com, name@tamu.edu, and name@olemiss.edu. The same rules apply to closed ship distribution lists. Email sent to a closed ship list from any address other than a JRSO ship email address (jr_name@ship.iodp.tamu.edu) will bounce.
A handful of JRSO’s distribution lists are open for public access outside of the iodp.tamu.edu domain. Examples include: change_of_address@iodp.tamu.edu, daily_report@iodp.tamu.edu, lab working group distro lists, and distro lists for recent expeditions. Open distribution lists accept email from any email address.
In order to minimize confusion on the ship, folks who use the JR’s address book (global address list) can only view contacts for JR distro lists and open shore distro lists.
Moderated Distribution Lists
Until recently, the only open lists designated for moderator review were four lab working group lists. These lists are no longer moderated. Email sent to a moderated list is initially reviewed and then released by the moderator (one or more distribution list owners).
