What can you do with mailing lists?

2008-10-21T11:31:00.000-07:00

There are many kinds of mailing lists. Below are three types:

Discussion List: anyone who is a subscriber of a discussion mailing list can submit information to be distributed to the entire group. In this way, a group discussion can take place. People contribute to the discussion by sending email to the discussion group email address.

Discussion Group lists are great for: Internet Users, Computer Networking, Animal Rescue, Home Schooling, Medical Support Groups, Legal Issues, Virtual Meetings.

Announcement Lists : are good to distribute information about a product, a service, an event or other noteworthy information. In most cases, the organization that runs the mailing list controls what information, is sent out. Announcement lists includes newsletters or e-zines, press releases, electronic post cards, sale reminders, coupons, alerts, greetings, and other one way communication messages.

Moderated Discussion List: is a mix of the two types above. Members of the group can submit information to be distributed to the entire group, but the subscribers submissions need to go through an approval process before they are distributed.
