Contacts List

Purpose

This list is for the state party to communicate official party business to the County Organizations of active counties, and other Greens as designated.

Official business includes information regarding:

This list typically does not distribute:

Audience and Distribution

County Councils of all active counties are the primary recipients. The contacts list is derived from a database of councilors maintained by the IT Group.

Councils may also request additional active Greens in their counties be added to the list.

A Council may also request an alias address be used for the council rather than individual members. In this case, the council is responsible for maintaining the forwarding of the alias.

Messages will state whether the intended audience is the list recipients, and/or for further distribution among the county's general Green audience. County Councils are responsible for setting up a system of distribution to Greens in their counties.

Some messages are used to solicit a response from the audience. In those cases, the message must contain contact information as to where the responses should be sent. The list operator cannot facilitate responses to messages.

Authorized Access

Only the list operator and back-up operator have posting privileges.

The following Party positions are authorized to request messages be posted to the list:

List Operators

There is a list operator and a back-up operator. Messages intended for this list must be sent to both persons in case the back-up is needed. The alias address for the list operators is lists@cagreens.org.

The list operator will review each posting request for appropriateness, as guided by this document. The list operator returns non-compliant messages with an explanation for the rejection.

If there is disagreement about the appropriateness of a message, the list operator will consult the Coordinating Committee for resolution.

The list operator notifies the back-up operator of any planned absences so the back-up can assume the duties of this job.

To maintain the contacts list, the IT Group, with assistance from the CC, will collect County Council information after the Primary when councilors are elected.

How To Use the Contact List

  1. Authorized party members send their messages to the list operator and the back-up operator at lists@cagreens.org.
     
    The message should indicate whether it is intended for list recipients only, or for forwarding to the general Green audience. If a response to the message is desired, it must include contact information, as this list cannot be used for two-way communications.
     
    Messages must be formatted in plain (ASCII) text, not RTF or HTML. See www.expita.com/nomime.html for instructions to turn off formatting in your email client.
     
  2. The list operator reviews the message for compliance with the guidelines of this document. The list operator returns non-compliant messages with an explanation for the rejection.
     
  3. The list operator distributes the message on contacts list.
