What are the auto-created Moira lists for Canvas sites?

Context

Canvas has a process that creates auto-populated Moira lists with membership data from MITSIS. These lists can be used as ACL (Access Control Lists) for resources and will be based on the course membership.

You may use these lists as mailing lists to send email to members of a class by adding @mit.edu to the end of the list name and making the list your email recipient.
