Regulatory framework
The use of a mailing list service means respecting a number of rules:
- In most mailing list services, subscribers receive a 'List subscribers charter' on subscription. Then they are obliged to respect all the rules contained in that charter.
- If available, list owners and moderators have to conform to the 'Owner and moderator charter'.
- The use of mailing lists naturally means respecting the rules of good practices as regards to email.
To know more, refer to the section dedicated to good practices for subscribers and to the section about good practices for owners and moderators.
