List Title

The list title is a short description of the list. The list title must fit on a single line and not exceed 40-50 characters. Here are some examples of good list titles: "Coffee Lover's List", "Popular Music of the 1940s and 1950s", "Science Projects for Children".

Choosing a descriptive title is important for public lists because it will be displayed when people browse or view the list using the web interface. Potential subscribers should be able to determine the purpose of your list by reading the title.

The list title is also used as the "name" part of the list's email address in the mail headers of messages distributed to the list. It is also used in some administrative messages.
