As described in [[News/uvlists-and-vital-communities-reach-an-agreement-regarding-transitions-of-upper-valley-lists]], UVLists is documenting the migration of community email lists from Vital Communities to UVLists. This page tracks the planned schedule and process; its subpages provide reusable communications for subscribers and list administrators.

Subscribers do not need to take action to move to the new UVLists list. Unless they unsubscribe from the Vital Communities list before its '''Cutover Date''', their subscription and delivery preference will be transferred. After the move, use the new list address shown on the list’s UVLists page.

== Before your list moves ==
A few minutes of preparation helps the new list's messages reach your inbox instead of your spam folder.
# '''Add the new list to your contacts.''' Every list has a ready-made contact card. Open the list's page from the table below, find '''VCard File''' in the '''Mailing List Info''' box, and select the link. You can also get the card from the list's short page at <code>go.uvlists.org</code> (for example, <code><nowiki>https://go.uvlists.org/norwich</nowiki></code>). With the card saved, your email program fills in the correct new address when you write to the list.
# '''Mark UVLists mail as safe.''' If your email service has a safe senders or approved senders list, add <code>lists.uvlists.org</code> to it.
# '''Check your spam folder after the cutover date.''' If a list message lands there, mark it as ''not spam''. Your email service learns from this.
For step-by-step help, see [[Help:Subscribing|Subscribing]] and [[Help:Delivery problems|Delivery problems]]. If something still is not working, email [mailto:helpdesk@uvlists.org helpdesk@uvlists.org].
