Definition of a Mailing List
A mailing list is a list of email addresses that are stored on your mail server that you can access through a single email address. This allows you to send an email to a single email address and have it distributed to all the email in that mailing list. This is useful for sending out a newsletter or announcement. The mailing list is set up and managed from the Email Management Page at http://emailadmin.yourdomain.com/ replacing "yourdomain.com" with your own domain name. The mailing lists have an initial limit of 30 users per list but additional users can be added for a $2.00 setup fee and $4.00 monthly fee per user. You can also add additional mailing lists, if you need them, for a setup fee of $20.00 and a monthly fee of $40.00.
Subscribe or Unsubscribe
You can configure your mailing list from your email administration page at http://emailadmin.mail2web.com.
To subscribe or unsubscribe to a mailing list, you need to send a request to the mailing list:
Subscribe: Send an email to listname-subscribe@your_domain.com
Subject: Subscribe me.
Unsubscribe: Send an email to listname-unsubscribe@your_domain.com
Subject: Unsubscribe me.
When you send a message to listname-subscribe@your_domain.com you'll received a confirmation message. Reply to that message and you'll be immediately added to the mailing list. Once you've been added to the list you'll be sent a WELCOME message.
When you send a message to listname-unsubscribe@your_domain.com to unsubscribe from the list you'll be sent a confirmation email. After replying to that message your email address will be removed from the list and you'll be sent a GOOD BYE message.
