What is a listserv?
A listserv is a mailing list that is used to mail one message to many people. Each person who is a member of the listserv can send messages to the list. Each member of the list will receive the message. You can post questions or suggestions, and members can post back responses.
You can sometimes find listservs if you are a part of an online group, forum, or a member of an organization.
Please post links to any listservs that you've found helpful.
