Chapter 3 Mailing Lists 75
Creating a New Mailing List
Mailing lists distribute a single email message to multiple recipients. Once you create a
mailing list, any email sent to the list’s address is sent to all the subscribers on the list.
Mailing lists have list administrators who can change list membership and list features.
Lists can be made self-subscribing, so list administrator’s don’t have to add and remove
subscribers; the subscribers can do so themselves.
To create a new list:
1 In Server Admin, select Mail in the Computer & Services list.
2 Click Settings.
3 Select the Lists tab.
4 Click the Add (+) button under the Lists pane.
5 Enter the list’s name.
The list name is the email account name to which mailing list users will send their mail.
The name isn’t case-sensitive, and cannot contain spaces.
6 Enter the list administrator’s email address.
If you only enter a name, it must be a username on the server. If you enter a
username@domain, the administrator doesn’t have to be a local user.
7 Click Users May Self Subscribe, if desired.
8 Choose the default language for the list.
You can choose English, German, Japanese, Korean, Russian, or Spanish. This setting
encodes the text generated by the list appropriately for the default language.
9 Choose any additional languages supported by the list.
This setting also encodes the text generated by the list appropriately for the default
language.
10 Click OK.
11 Click Save.
Now, you can add subscribers to the list. To add subscribers, see “Adding Subscribers”
on page 80.
If you have allowed users to self-subscribe, they can subscribe themselves through
email or the web administration page.
