On my LISTSERV list, how do I get a list of current subscribers?

To see the subscribers to your LISTSERV list, you can use email to send a command to the LISTSERV server. Or, if you are a list owner at Indiana University, you can use IU's LISTSERV web interface. See the steps below for both methods.

Using LISTSERV commands via email

To see the subscribers for your LISTSERV list, send the following command in the body (not in the subject line) of a message to the LISTSERV server, replacing listname with the name of your list:

Note: For Indiana University LISTSERV mailing lists, send all commands to the appropriate address for your campus:

Never send commands to the address of the mailing list (e.g., to  listname@indiana.edu ). Send only messages intended for members of the list to the list's address.

The owner of the list may restrict who can view the email addresses and names of the subscribers with the Review keyword in the list header. For more information about using the Review keyword, see On my LISTSERV list, what security settings are available?

To see your subscription list if you have concealed subscribers, use the following command, replacing listname with the name of your list:

Note: Only list owners may use the command above.

The lack of a closing parenthesis in the command above is necessary. Additionally, it is imperative that you use the (NOLOCK option in order to keep your list available for other commands.

Using IU's LISTSERV web interface

For Indiana University LISTSERV lists, visit the menu for your campus:

Log in using your IU email address and LISTSERV password, and then select List Dashboard from the List Management menu at the top. Under "List Name", find the list you wish to manage, and next to the list name, click View. If you do not have a LISTSERV personal password, see In LISTSERV, how do I set or change a personal password?
