The WSFCA list serve is INTERACTIVE which means members on the list serve can send messages to the entire list (it does NOT have to be done by your WSFCA office). It is just like sending an email to one person – but it goes to the entire list.
You must be a member, and registered on the list serve to send a message. The WSFCA office registers all new members (and processes email address changes) with the list serve for members.
Once you send out your message, watch to see that it has indeed been received by you (and therefore everyone else on the list).
These items are appropriate for sending to the list serve:
• Positions available
• Requests for information or assistance on fire service topics
• Promotion of WSFCA programs and services
• Training opportunities
• Department events
• Line of Duty Deaths
Unacceptable postings to the WSFCA list serve include (but not limited to):
• Solicitations of business by Associate members
• Political positions for or against legislative actions, except those approved by the WSFCA Board of Directors.
How do you send a List Serve message?
1. Open your email browser (Outlook, Entourage, Yahoo, etc) and put the List Serve email address in the “TO” field. List Serve email: wsfca_members@lists.wsfca.com
2. Type the title with the topic of your message starting with “WSFCA List Serve:” (Example: WSFCA List Serve: Award Announcement)
3. Place the message inside the body of the email and be sure to include contact information.
4. Attach any corresponding material to the email. However, there is a limit to the attachment’s size. Combined all attachments must be less than 100K. If you send the message with attachments larger than that, your message will be forwarded back to you with an error message.
If you have any trouble sending a List Serve message or have questions please contact the WSFCA office. We are happy to help figure out the error and answer questions.
