These are mailing lists of people involved in a project, congress, service, etc. The addresses of these lists are in the format xxx@epfl.ch.
To create or modify these lists you will have to send a request to the Service Desk (1234@epfl.ch).
Please note that these lists do not lend themselves to too frequent modifications.
These thematic lists (xxx@epfl.ch) are neither suitable for people who want to directly and quickly control the content of the list. In this case, you may ask a respinfo to create a service account that will redirect the account address xxx@epfl.ch to a group address xxx@groupes.epfl.ch or a list xxx@listes.epfl.ch. These lists will then be easy to manage through their respective Web interfaces.
It is also the recommended type of list for a very large number of recipients. It enable EPFL’s mail servers to distribute the load caused by sending to these lists over time.
