Please email the editor of this page details of other relevant public-access lists.

This section of the Pacific Studies WWW VL catalogs details of mailing lists dealing with the region and its countries

There is a great world of email-based electronic forums, bulletin boards, USENET newsgroups and other types of one-to-one, one-to-many, and many-to-many online communication tools. Should you wish to explore it in depth, please consult extensive catalogs of mailing lists compiled by

Kovacs, Diane K. (ed.) The Directory of Scholarly and Professional E-Conferences.

L-Soft International, Inc. (eds.). CataList, the official catalog of LISTSERV lists.

da Silva, Stephanie (ed.). Publicly Accessible Mailing Lists

Southwick, Scott (ed.). Liszt, the mailing list directory.
