Webmail - Group Lists

Group Lists are email addresses that deliver to a set of previously selected mailboxes. They also have sender restrictions, so only mailboxes that you explicitly allow may send to the group list address.

To illustrate the function, here's an example: if you want to email only referees whose email addresses you have on file you could create a grouplist called referees@yourclub.com. Only people on this list receive copies of the messages sent to that address, and only those on the accepted senders list may send to it. By doing that, you won't receive any spam, and there's a [Referees] tag at the beginning of each message sent to referees@yourclub.com, so it's easy to see the deliveries for these lists.

To take advantage of group lists, you must login as a webmail administrator. Typically, only one person from each club has this type of access. Once logged in, Group Lists, should be an option on the toolbar on the left side of the screen. Create a group list name, subject, and add the email addresses. You can have up to 50 external email addresses. An external email address is one that does not use your domain. For example, email addresses at AOL, Yahoo, Gmail, Hotmail, etc. are all considered external email addresses. Make sure you save your changes when you are done. Finally, you can create an email directed to your Group List.
