Procedures

There are currently four mechanisms available to send Broadcast E-mail, each of which is described below. The first two are institutionally-supported and are recommended because they adhere to all of the policy elements outlined in this document. The third mechanism, also recommended, is used exclusively for sending e-mail to entire Boston University Medical Campus (BUMC) constituent groups, i.e., all faculty and/or staff and/or students. Use of either the BUMC procedure or the fourth mechanism, local distribution lists, is governed by the Broadcast E-mail Policy.
