List-Serving

Gammadyne Mailer can automate the duties of a List-Server.  This is also referred to as a Discussion Group, Discussion List, Web Forum, Message Board, Discussion Board, or Discussion Forum.  When an incoming email is received, it is remailed (forwarded) to all members of the group.

Features

The List-Server has numerous powerful options:

  • Non-members can be prevented from posting messages.  Or, postings can be limited to only moderators.
  • Posted messages can have attachments stripped before forwarding.
  • Posts can be censored for profanity and racial insults.
  • Posts that are excessively large can be discarded (without being downloaded).
  • The "To:" header can be changed to each member's email address.  This is useful because some email clients will filter out all email that is not addressed to the recipient (as a form of spam prevention).
  • The "Reply-To:" header can be changed to the email address of the List-Server.  This way, replies will go to the group, not the individual who posted the original email.
  • The mailing list can be located in a database or plain text file.

A Wizard will help configure Gammadyne Mailer for list-serving.  Choose "List-Serving" from the "Wizards" menu.
