Removing Yourself from the Graduate or Undergraduate Email Lists

Setting a LISTSERV Password

If you have previously set a LISTSERV password for your netid@tennessee.edu email address (not netid@vols.utk.edu) then you can skip this section and proceed to unsubscribe below. You may also follow these instructions if you have forgotten your LISTSERV password

  1. Visit https://listserv.utk.edu/cgi-bin/wa?GETPW1=
    1. Enter your email address in the form netid@tennessee.edu, e.g. jruser@tennessee.edu
    2. Enter a new password into the Password and Password (Again) fields. The minimum password length is 6 characters.
    3. Click “Register Password”
  2. You will receive an email with text similar to this: 
    Your command:

                             PW REP ********

requires confirmation. To  confirm the execution of  your command, simply
click on the following link:

             https://listserv.utk.edu/cgi-bin/wa?OK=ABSD123

Alternatively, if you  have no WWW access, you can  reply to this message
and type OK as the text of your message. If you receive an error message,
try sending a new message to LISTSERV@LISTSERV.UTK.EDU (without using the
"reply" function) and type OK 3E2BFB43 as the text of your message.

Your command will be cancelled automatically if LISTSERV does not receive
your confirmation  within 48h. After that  time, you must start  over and
resend the  command to get  a new confirmation  code. If you  change your
mind and decide that you do not  want to confirm the command, then simply
discard this message and let the request expire on its own.
  3. Click the link to confirm your password. DO NOT use the email method to activate your password as your email will not originate from netid@tennessee.edu.

You can now use this password for any LISTSERV operations
