This guide explains how to add or remove owners of a Listserv mailing list. Owners have full administrative control over the list, including managing subscribers, settings, and other roles.
Prerequisites
You must already be the owner of the Listserv list.
How to Add a New Owner
1. Log in to the Listserv Management Interface at https://listserv.uga.edu/. Log in using your Listserv credentials.
2. Access List Configuration
- Click on List Management.
- Select List Configuration.
- Choose your list from the dropdown or filter options.
3. Edit the List Header
Click on Edit with Wizard
Scroll to the Blue Owner= link and click on Owner=
A new page will display. On the new page enter the new owner's listserv email address.
Add the new owner's email address in the top box. The owner's email should be separated by a comma and then a space.
Example: Owner= owner1@uga.edu, newowner@uga.edu, etc.
4. Save Changes
Click the Update button at the bottom of the page
You should see a confirmation message that the list header was successfully updated
Please note:
- You can have multiple owners.
- Be cautious: removing yourself as an owner will revoke your ability to manage the list.
- Do not remove Quiet Owners
