Which E-lists are Hosted by CIT?

CIT hosts more than 4500 different e-lists, serving more than 600,000 members. There are millions of lists hosted in other places. So how do you tell whether these web pages apply to the list you're interested in? A quick look at the email address of the list will tell you. If the address ends with

-L@cornell.edu

then you're dealing with a CIT-hosted list.

Here are some examples (some of which are fictitious):

Hosted by CIT

students-L@cornell.edu

cit-alert-L@cornell.edu

class-of-1935-L@cornell.edu

sheep-shearing-L@cornell.edu

Not Hosted by CIT

students-L@law.cornell.edu

The address after the @ sign has to be just "cornell.edu" not "something.cornell.edu"
Lists with a something.cornell.edu address are hosted by an individual school or unit at Cornell, but not CIT.

limnological@cornell.edu

The "limnological" address doesn't have"-L" just before the @ sign.

cu-1935-L@cornellclub.org

The domain name has to be "cornell.edu" and not just something close to it.

sheep-shearing@rancher.net

Not even close...
