Email list features

• It is a closed list (in the sense that Compost Australia committee members must be subscribed to the list by a list manager)
• Once subscribed, members are able to post freely without moderator approval (ie. member postings are not screened)
• This ensures no one but subscribed members can post messages - so no spam, no advertisements and no eavesdropping
• Messages emailed to the list address by members are automatically distributed to all list members
• Provides an archive of correspondence that is accessible on internet
• Provides a list management service, whereby a list manager manually adds and/or removes members email addresses in response to direct email requests from a specified Compost Australia executive (ie. when a new member joins, or a current member fails to renew membership, the CA secretary (for example) will email the list manager with name and email address of the member, and request it to be added/removed from the list. The list manager will implement this request directly). This ensures we have one list only, and that all committee members receive the same information.
• Provides members with a user name and password without new members needing to do anything, all that needs to happen is a list of names and associated email contact for new member be emailed to the moderator by the CA executive
• Sends new members an introductory email that provides very simple and clear instructions for using the list, accessing the Internet archive, and provides them with a password.
• Sends automated monthly reminders to list members of their password
• Allows distribution of attachments of up to 1 MB. Larger attachments will not be transmitted.
