How to join The Raymond Common Room Discussion

  1. To sign up for sending and receiving messages, use your browser and go to https://lists.raymondcollege.org/mailman/listinfo/rpi-common-room3 and follow the instructions to sign yourself up. (The request will go to the Moderator for confirmation, which may take a couple of days.) The same page can also be used to change your email address or password later on, or to unsubscribe from the list.
  2. After you sign up, the Common Room listserv program will send you a confirmation email. You must reply to this email for your account to be activated. (If you don't receive a confirmation email, please check your Junk/Spam/Trash folders.)
  3. You should then start to receive Raymond Common Room messages! If not, again please check your Junk/Spam/Trash folders.
  4. Feel free to send out a message introducing yourself to the Raymond "Tribe". Use your email client and send to this address: rpi-common-room3@lists.raymondcollege.org.
  5. We recommend setting up an inbound email filter (white-list) using this information: rpi-common-room3@lists.raymondcollege.org. The email filter will keep your inbound Common Room messages from going to your Junk/Spam/Trash folders, or bouncing altogether.
  6. Only compatible email addresses are allowed. Bounced emails—meaning your email client bounces the incoming mail from the listserv—are a significant problem for the management of a listserv. Most problems with bounces can be remedied using the method described above (#5). Sometimes an email client, or the user, are not able to make an adjustment. In that case, in order for us to continue a functioning listserv, we recommend using another email client, @gmail for instance. A total of three bounces from an individual email address will necessitate removal from the listserv. Individual participants are welcome to rejoin the listserv once they subscribe with a compatible email address.
