The SWMM-USERS list server

List servers provide a means for subscribers to get quick answers to questions and participate in discussions relating to the list server topics. Subscription is free, and subscribers receive all the e-mail that is sent to the list and can in turn send e-mail to the list.

The SWMM-USERS list server is a forum for users of the public-domain USEPA SWMM program to share ideas and ask questions on issues related to stormwater management modeling. A searchable archive of past questions and answers is available through the SWMM Knowledge Base, and for direct search.

The PCSWMM FAQ and the SWMM Knowledgebase are not open for direct posting by users

If you have a PCSWMM related question, please send it to support@chiwater.com . If you have a EPA SWMM5 related question, please join SWMM-USERS and post your question there. In both cases, the question and answer may be posted in the CHI forums for others benefit.

Subscribing to SWMM-USERS

To subscribe to a list, send an email to listserv@listserv.uoguelph.ca. Do not put anything in the subject line and, in the body of the message, include the following line (with NO other text and no brackets):

    SUBSCRIBE SWMM-USERS [your first name] [your last name]

For example,

    SUBSCRIBE SWMM-USERS JANE DOE

It is very important to subscribe to the list from the email account that you wish to use for SWMM-USERS communications (the "reply to" email address is used by the list server). Also, if you are changing or terminating an email address, please remember to unsubscribe from that address before you close it.

Before being subscribed you will receive an email explaining in some detail the philosophy of the list, and its procedures for protecting against spammers. Once subscribed, you will receive a confirmation email detailing the email address to send SWMM-USERS communications to, and providing other information about the list server. Please archive this email for future reference, as you will need it.

Unsubscribing from SWMM-USERS

To leave the list, send this message (with NO other text and no brackets) to the subscription address listserv@listserv.uoguelph.ca:

    SIGNOFF SWMM-USERS
