List Purpose
The purpose of the gODparents list is to provide a forum in which some of the senior practitioners in our field, organization development, can meet and discuss topics and issues that are uniquely of interest to them.
Who Can Subscribe
This is a closed list membership is by invitation only. For more information, contact Denny Gallagher and Marti Kaplan.
Subscribing
Subscribing and all other functions can be done easily using the subscription form. Follow instructions carefully.
We encourage you to write a brief note introducing yourself shortly after joining a list.
Sending to the List
When sending a message to the list, you may NOT send attachments (including Microsoft Outlook "vcards") or HTML content (colors, fonts, pictures). This is to avoid rare, but potentially serious, security problems including transmitting viruses to list subscribers.
Information on how to configure your email program (Outlook, AOL, Eudora, etc.) can be found at http://www.expita.com/nomime.html (click "Email Client Programs").
Changing Member Options
You can change or retrieve your password, set the To/From Digest, suspend mailings, and change your email address or name using the member options form.
You can set the "Mail Delivery" option to "Disabled" to suspend messages (for vacations, travel, etc. when you do not wish to receive mail) and reset it to "Enabled" when you return. This is easier than unsubscribing and resubscribing. You can set this option for all lists at once from any list.
Unsubscribing
For security, you will have to respond to a message sent to your email address to complete the unsubscribe process.
List Archives
The full text of the list archives can be searched - by any words in the text including author. The archives can also be searched by date. This is useful if you wish to follow a single discussion.
If you do not know your list password, request it be sent to you before trying to access the archives. We advise changing your password to something you can remember. You may make this easier by using the option to set the password for all lists at one time.
