Administrivia

Many of you probably noticed that in January 2006, the mechanism by
which the DistList is mailed changed. We are now using a mailing
list management system called mailman. This is used only to *send*
the message, it is *not* used for DistList administration and there
have been no changes whatever in the procedures for posting: submit
your postings by sending them as plain text to
consdist [at] lindy__stanford__edu. Similarly there have been no changes to
the procedures for making administrative requests such updating your
ConsDir information, email address, asking questions about the list,
etc.: send them to consdist-request [at] lindy__stanford__edu.

While it is likely that there will be procedural changes at some
time in the future, until then, please follow the same procedures
that have been in place for many years. For details see

I do have one comment that may be helpful, especially to Hotmail
users: if you find that you are not receiving mailings, you may have
to 'whitelist' (or add to your 'safe senders' list) the following
addresses

    consdist [at] lindy__stanford__edu
    consdist-request [at] lindy__stanford__edu

    mailman-bounces [at] lists__stanford__edu
    consdistlist [at] lists__stanford__edu
    cdl [at] waycool__stanford__edu
    cdl-manager [at] conservationonline__stanford__edu
    consdistlist [at] mailman__stanford__edu
    consdistlist-owner [at] lists__stanford__edu

    consdist-request [at] lindy__stanford__edu
    consdist-request+consdist [at] lindy__stanford__edu
