-You can subscribe to any of these lists similarly to "physics-announce" above - send an email to ''sympa@physics.umn.edu'' with the subject ''SUBSCRIBE listname''. Depending on the specific list, this will either subscribe you, or send your request to the list owner. +===== Creating new Google Groups ===== 
- +  * [[https://it.umn.edu/google-groups-request-group|Google Groups]]
-Some other list operations have to be performed directly in the lists system web interface at http://lists.physics.umn.edu, where you can log in using your Physics account. Log in to the site with the username //username//''@physics.umn.edu'' (replace //username// with your own physics username), and your physics password. +
- +
-The lists are subdivided into categories: +
-  * Astronomy - lists set up for the Astronomy Department +
-  * Physics (Departmental) - lists for Physics departmental use (eg , "faculty", "grads", etc). +
-  * Physics (Classes) - lists related to classes +
-  * Physics (Projects) - lists related to research projects, workshops, or other individual projects. +

-===== unsubscribing from a different address ===== +
- +
-<note> +
-**If you have to send your unsubscribe request from a different address** other than the subscribed one - for example, if you have changed your email address -  include the //subscribed// email address in the unsubscribe command, as below (where //my@email.com// is the address you want to unsubscribe): +
