Listserv is a collection of electronic discussion groups, which are online forums where people discuss particular topics by receiving and posting messages using e-mail or the web. Listserv is also a convenient resource for sending announcements to a group by using a single e-mail address to reference the group. Electronic discussion groups are also called "distribution lists" or "lists."
