Doug, Got It! You can tell if you are on the listserv or not by sending an email to the posting address. If you get a copy of it, then you can reason it out that you have joined the listserv successfully. In my email client, I can tell when an email comes from the listserv because the subject line begins with [cisb102su01] . Keep watch as classmates send email using the listserv and try to compare that to email that comes from Blackboard, Send Mail, All Users or email sent form their regular email client.
