List Servers



There are many list servers, but there are two or three main pieces of software that are used to administer them:

Listserv
A global list of lists, of all sorts, run on LISTSERV software, and information about them, is kept by L-Soft International Inc. at http://www.lsoft.com/lists/listref.html
Majordomo
There are a number of commands available in Majordomo that you can use to subscribe and unsubscribe, to see what lists you are on, and to get more information about a specific list. For a description of commands in Majordomo send mail to: majordomo@ams.org Enter the word help as a single-line message. The message subject text is ignored.

Lists Available on the AMS website

Several mathematics-related mail lists are run under Majordomo by the AMS on the AMS website, some of which are managed or moderated by someone other than the AMS.
For a complete list, send mail to: majordomo@ams.org Enter the word
lists
as a single-line message. The message subject text is ignored.

To subscribe to one of the lists, called say listname, send a message to majordomo@ams.org containing a single line of the form
subscribe listname username@some.address.edu

The active list names below are arranged so that, if your browser can support this feature, a mail window allowing you to post a message to the list will appear when you click on the list name. This does not subscribe to the list; to do that send the subscription message just explained, for instance by clicking on majordomo@ams.org.

Calculus Reform

calc-reform is a discussion list devoted to the reform of curriculum and pedagogy for calculus and elementary linear algebra, including differential equations.

Calculus Reform Digest

calc-reform-digest is a digest form of the above list.

Real Analysis

real-analysis is a discussion group intended to support an exchange of ideas concerning real analysis in one and several variables. Some appropriate topics include continuity, integration, differentiation, topology of Euclidean spaces and real harmonic analysis.
This list is moderated by ( Lee Larson).

Fermat's Last Theorem

fermat is moderated by Ken Ribet (Department of Mathematics, University of California, Berkeley). It is intended as a discussion group for topics related to Andrew Wiles' recent proof of Fermat's Last Theorem.
The following discussion lists are for certain issues in relation to mathematics. These services are provided through the AMS website by the American Mathematical Society to help interested mathematicians to communicate with one another about important current issues.

Graduate Education in Mathematics

graduate A discussion list for issues in Graduate Education in mathematics. More information.

Undergraduate Education in Mathematics

undergraduate A discussion list for issues in Undergraduate Education in mathematics. More information.

K-12 / University Connections in Mathematics

k12connect A discussion list for issues in K-12 / University Connections in mathematics. More information.

German-language lists

Informatik und Kommunikation - Deutsche Mathematische Gesellschaft

IuK-DMV ist Teil der gemeinsamen Mailing-Liste der Deutschen Mathematiker Vereinigung (DMV), der Deutschen Physikalischen Gesellschaft (DPG), der Gesellschaft Deutscher Chemiker (GDCh) und der Gesellschaft für Informatik (GI), die geht auf das Bestreben dieser wissenschaftlichen Fachgesellschaften zurück, auf dem Gebiet der elektronischen Information und Kommunikation (IuK) zu kooperieren.

Subscribieren und Pflege der Adressen
Das Tool Majordomo gestattet Ihnen selbst, sich in den Verteiler IuK-DMV einzutragen (bzw. zu löschen). D.h. auch für die Pflege Ihrer Adressen sind Sie selbst verantwortlich. Z.B., zum eintragen bitte schicken Sie dazu eine Mail an:
majordomo@zib-berlin.de
Im Body der Mail hat zu stehen:
subscribe IuK-DMV
das Subject-Zeile wird nicht berücksichtigt.

Archivierung
Für die Mailing Listen IuK-<FG> wurde eine automatische Archivierung eingerichtet. Es gibt ein Archiv IuK-DMV, wo Sie alle Mails, die über den Verteiler IuK-DMV gelaufen sind, finden. Alle Mailing-Listen liegen in der Kollektion "Electronic Conferences at ZIB" auf dem Hyper-G-Server des Konrad-Zuse-Zentrums für Informationstechnik. Die URL dafür ist http://elib.zib.de.
