====== Update Lists ======

===== Summary =====
All mailing lists managed by this application are automatically updated once per day before 8am. If any information is changed, a manual update can be run using the **Update Lists** link. Updating lists will check all members against the campus LDAP. It may take up to 30 seconds to check all members, so please be patient when manually updating lists.

===== All ======
Selecting this option will update all mailing lists managed by this application, including non-student, gradstudents, and ugrad mailing lists.

===== Non-Student =====
The non-student mailing lists should be updated if any of the following is true:
  * A non-student member's building has changed
  * A non-student member's email has changed
  * A non-student member's list membership has changed

If the non-student lists are not manually updated after these changes, any changes will be applied the next morning when the automatic update occurs.

===== Gradstudents =====
The Gradstudents mailing lists should be updated if any of the following is true:
  * A grad student is added or removed from the [[people:override|Override List]]
  * A non-student member is added or removed from the 'gradstudents' or a 'gradstudents-<department>' list
  * A non-student member's email changes and they are on a grad student list

If the grad student lists are not manually updated, any changes will be applied the next morning when the automatic update occurs.

  * A non-student member is added or removed from a 'ugrad-<degree>' list
