New email list? was created by Mickey Not D
Hi Everyone,

Can I create a new email list for our Club? We're working on a new project, a newsletter, and I'd like to have a list dedicated just to those members working on the project.

Thanks!

Michael Lamas

VPPR,
Motorola Communicators ToastMasters Club, #9745

Thanks. I checked that link you sent. Thanks. However, in this part of the instructions:

"To create a new group, select which main group you wish the group members to come from. Then enter the group name in the field."

I can't find where the Groups are located. I'd send you a screenshot of the Menu options, but it looks as if there's no Upload options here. In any case, I've checked every menu link and could not find "Group." The closest I came was the Club Email Addresses, but that looks like it's only for sending out an email.

Michael

Ok, we need to tweak our wording a bit, it looks like.

When it says "Main Group" substitute "list".

Lists in FTH are the members list, the prospects list, the guest list, the former members list, the friends list, etc. ... Basically the tabs that you see in Membership Management. These are all also processed as email distribution lists by the list server. (hence, "list")

Yes it is semantics.... We need to use two different terms, list and group, as you can see to limit confusion. (And even then, it can still be confusing.)

Custom Groups are subsets of the main lists of people. Therefore, when making a custom group, you need to pick which list to create it from.

Got it — yes, "terms" make a difference! :)
