Users of Visual Alms, the fundraising database system from Westwood Forster,
now have three e-mail discussion lists on which to share advice and tips on using
the software.

[Visualalms](http://www.egroups.com/subscribe/visualalms) is run on egroups.com 
and was launched in April 2000. Unfortunately the list’s moderator has failed to
reply to UK Fundraising’s requests for further information, including letting us
know who he or she is.

Two other discussion lists for Visual Alms users were set up on the university e-
mail list system Mailbase in January 2000. [Visual-alms](http://www.mailbase.ac.uk/lists/visual-alms)
is a list for users among alumni and development staff in the higher education sector.
The former list for all users is the more popular in terms of number of messages
posted.

Both lists were set up and are managed by Janice Sorrell at the Development Office
of City University, former home of UK Fundraising. None of these three lists are
run by the supplier [Westwood Forster](http://www.westwood-forster.co.uk) although
they are reported to be planning an e-mail list for those clients who have signed
up for the “relationship initiative”.
