Who can use them?
Anyone, within reason. All messages sent to the lists are approved by moderators before being sent out, in order to stop spam, and to help ensure the lists are being used for scouting, and relevant information to the members of the particular list. There is also a danger to "information overload" by the people on the email lists, so please use spareingly. Remember you can also reach lots of people by posting a message up on the forum.
How do I use them?
Simply send your email to list@lists.essexscouts.org.uk, replacing list with the relevant list name (e.g. ).
