OurShack mail lists

From January 2026, Ourshack lists are managed with Sympa.

Many of the older lists are in the lists.ourshack.com domain, but newer ones are more likely to be in the domain that they relate to.

Logging into Sympa

Sympa accounts are identified by e-mail address. If you are on one of our mailing lists then you have at least a skeleton account here.

Some lists allow you to subscribe or unsubscribe directly. Just enter your email address, wait for the confirmation message and click on the link that it contains.

For more detailed control, or to manage a list that you own or moderate, you will need a password.

• If you already have an account on the Ourshack mail system (i.e. you use our Roundcube webmail system or you connect a mail client to mailhub.ourshack.com) then you can use the same username and password with Sympa.
• If your email is hosted elsewhere (gmail, hotmail, yahoo, etc) then you will need to create a password for Sympa. Click on Sympa's Login button at the top-right corner of the list homepage, then click on the 'First login using an email address' link at the bottom. Enter your email address and wait for the mail message which will contain a link allowing you to set a password.
