E-mail

A mailing list groups people according to specific criteria — usually reflected in the list's name — allowing you to reach a specific group of people at the Umwelt-Campus location. Please don't use mailing lists for support requests; use the appropriate service address instead. Choose your mailing list carefully. Before sending, think about who actually benefits from the information and who might find yet another email annoying — don't send to everyone by default just because it's easy. Keep in mind that some information is internal to the university and should only go to selected recipients. Emails sent to mailing lists must be clearly university-related (for employees) or study-related (for students). Emails serving commercial or personal interests will not be forwarded.

Instructions

The following groups differ in their permissions for addressing mailing lists:

Employees

Employees at Umwelt-Campus can address all mailing lists directly, without approval. There's no need to send an email to mailverteiler@umwelt-campus.de.

Students

Students at Umwelt-Campus can address all mailing lists, but these emails go through an additional review. They will be approved provided they comply with the guidance listed on the right. Since an email is automatically rejected if it hasn't been approved within 48 hours, avoid sending it on a Friday or over the weekend.

External
  1. Send your e-mail to mailverteiler(at)umwelt-campus.de. It should arrive exactly as intended for the actual recipients (with a meaningful subject line). Do not write an additional comment in the subject or the content of the message!
  2. Then immediately send a second e-mail to mailverteiler(at)umwelt-campus.de, in which you specify why and to which group of people your above-mentioned e-mail should be forwarded.

Please note the information on the right and that no attachments will be forwarded (including embedded graphics)!

Messages that do not meet the conditions will be ignored and deleted without comment.

If you'd like to send an email to multiple people or a specific group of people, you'll find a list of recipient groups under Verteiler in your address book (Outlook or OWA). Please note the guidance and recommendations on the right. Below you'll see the basic structure of the addresses (each ending in @umwelt-campus.de):

Recommendations and Guidance

Connection to the university or relevance to studies
Emails that clearly pursue commercial or private interests, or have no recognizable connection to the university or to studies at the campus, will not be forwarded.

Distribute information selectively
Please choose your recipients carefully.

Keep it short and stay on topic
Emails that are disproportionately long (even without an attachment larger than 20 KB) will only be forwarded if there's a good reason to do so.

Avoid attachments
Save resources here too. Attachments are rejected by some recipients for security reasons. If you can't do without a formatted document, store it on your homepage (TYPO3 CMS) or Seafile instead, and link to it in your email.

Cross-institutional mailing lists
If you'd like to send an email to all members of Trier University of Applied Sciences, you'll find the necessary guidance on the Trier University of Applied Sciences website.
