Mailing list senders to start receiving alerts

To avoid situations where an email message sent mistakenly appears in a mailing list, the university’s IT Office has created an additional function to draw the sender’s attention to the recipient’s email address. If the sender enters an email address ending with lists.ut.ee, they will see an alert “NB! This letter will be sent to the list”.

The alert will be displayed from 22 November onwards in all emails with lists.ut.ee as part of the recipient’s email address. This will help the sender to notice that the email is not actually sent to one person but to a whole mailing list, and to change the email address, if necessary.

University email can be read in Outlook, on the website kiri.ut.ee and in all the most common email applications on Windows, Apple and Linux computers, as well as on smart devices with Apple and Android software. However, if an email is not sent from the website or from a Windows program, the sender of the email may still not receive the notification.
