SonicWall Spam Filtering -Over 98% of email coming into the University system is spam.  UTS uses SonicWall to automatically remove incoming spam from the system. However, you can check spam that has been filtered out, or configure SonicWall to your particular email requirements.

Listserv

A listserv is a group email service. People can subscribe to a listserv group, and then automatically receive emails that are posted to the listserv. University Technology Services provides a listserv system for educational, instructional, and administrative use only.

Faculty, departments, colleges and organizations at the University of South Carolina may set up a listserv account. Students or student organizations must have a faculty or staff "co-sponsor" to create a listserv group.

A listserv can be configured to allow all members to submit a broadcast email, or it can be set up to allow only a few members or just the administrator to submit. Group lists are easy to create and can be modified at any time. For more information, contact the UTS Service Desk at 803-777-1800, or email: servicedesk@sc.edu.
