All:
I'll be taking over a mailing list effective 1 January
that has around 500 people on it. Moderated, with one
message per week.
Situation:
This is twenty different mailing lists, whose only difference
is in the graphic format that the recipients are sent.
<< TIFF, GIF, PNG, etc >>
Currently the list is manually maintained, including subscribe,
unsubscribe requests, etc.
I'd like to have it all automated, so all I have to do,
is send the message, with the appropriate graphic to
each list.
Questions:
#1: How do I set up the lists, so that somebody won't subscribe
to all twenty, thinking that they are different lists?
IE: Subscribe to HWA-GIFF only, and not HWA-GIFF,
HWA-JPEG, HWA-TIFF, HWA-PNG etc thinking that
each of them is a different list.
I don't really object to people subscribing to all the different
lists --- except I forsee complaints about them being the same.
#2: Does anybody have a good suggestion as to what mailing list
software I should use? Or at least try out?
Send responses to me, and if there are any requests, I'll
post a synopsis to list-managers.
