All LTER Network mailing lists use the lternet.edu domain and are maintained in google groups. To request to join a network network mailing list, visit the group’s “about” page, using the format: https://groups.google.com/a/lternet.edu/g/”group_name”/about, where “group_name”=the list name in the table below. Emails to group lists from non-members will be either rejected or moderated.
Non-gmail addresses can receive email through google groups, but managing mail, group-associated calendar invitations, and shared-drive access will be easier using a google-enabled email address. It is fairly simple to link a non-google email address to a google account.
