Subscribers to the list will normally be included in the VERSIM Email Directory unless they request otherwise.
Note that at the moment the mailing list is not automated, i.e., the VERSIM IAGA
co-chair needs to manually modify the mailing list to subscribe or unsubscribe
someone. This may take a few days.
Guidelines for the VERSIM mailing list
The list is for messages and announcements of interest to the international VERSIM (VLF/ELF Remote Sensing of Ionospheres and
Magnetospheres) community. It was originally a free unmoderated list
(messages sent to the list were forwarded automatically to all subscribers).
Regrettably, abuse of the list made moderation necessary, and
from 12 November 2001 were screened by the list maintainer before being forwarded.
With the transfer to the new IAGA co-chair the list returned to an unmoderated
state for 3-years, far longer than originally intended. However, we have now
(finally) got a fully moderated list running using the Mailman system. Now that
the list has returned to a moderated state there will be a delay between sending
to the list and the email being send on. This will, however, be kept as short as
possible, and this should massively decrease the amount of spam you receive. The
old VERSIM mail addresses are now being switched off. Irrespective of whether the list is moderated or not, we expect emails to the
list to be acceptable. Examples of acceptable messages:
-
Announcements of scientific meetings and seminars in the VERSIM or related
fields.
-
Calls for papers.
-
Research posts and studentships in the VERSIM or related fields.
-
News of Announcements of Opportunity etc., relevant to VERSIM
-
Announcements of new research results published or to be published.
-
News about experimental research facilities for VERSIM science.
-
News about VERSIM people.
Please try to keep messages brief and text only, as not all subscribers may be
able to read binary attachments (e.g. images). It will usually be best to
indicate a Web page where such information may be found.
The following are unacceptable:
-
Messages which are unrelated to VERSIM
-
Messages which are unlikely to be of interest to a significant proportion of
the VERSIM community.
-
Advertising from commercial organisations.
-
Spam.
-
Bad or abusive language.
-
Copyright material, without the permission of the copyright holder.
-
Administrative messages to subscribe or unsubscribe. These should be sent to
crodger at
physics.otago.ac.nz
Comments or questions about this list should be sent to the list maintainers:

The list is currently maintained by the IAGA
Co-chairman of the VERSIM Working Group: Craig Rodger
