Broadcast Email Options

emailto.com can configure your Broadcast E-mail service to best suit the needs of your particular business or interest. The following is an overview of our service options:

Broadcast E-mail Listservs
If your business needs to coordinate broad-ranging collaboration and discussion amongst many different people, our Broadcast E-mail Listserv service is your ideal solution. Because this is a two-way listserv, this service acts as a type of discussion list, allowing the list's subscribers to send a single E-mail to the Listserv address which broadcasts the message to every other subscriber on the list.

Listserv Options
Depending on your needs, emailto.com can make your lists private, which restricts subscription to approved members only, or public, which opens the discussion list to anyone who wishes to join. Private, members-only discussion lists have several advantages over public lists, the most significant being preventing your subscribers from falling victim to Unsolicited Commercial E-mail (or "spam"). In either case, you can choose to allow subscription over the web using an on-line application, or restrict subscription requests to e-mail - but whatever subscription method you choose, you always retain full control over your membership.

Moderated Listservs
For optimum control of your Broadcast E-mail resource, you may choose to operate a moderated list. emailto.com can designate any individual or group of your choosing as the discussion list's moderators, who may then decide which posts will be distributed to all subscribers. This is distinctly different from a standard, unmoderated Broadcast E-mail List, which enables any subscriber to broadcast to the entire group without prior approval of their posts.

Distribution Options for Listservs
Depending upon your configuration needs, individual subscribers to your emailto.com Broadcast E-mail Lists will either receive each post as soon as it's sent, or receive all messages from each day combined into a single E-mail digest. The digest format might be more practical if you plan to operate a Broadcast E-mail List with a large number of subscribers - rather than filling up each subscriber's mailbox with dozens of messages daily, they receive them in one complete package.

Listservs to Newgroup/Forums Options
emailto.com puts the entire archive of your discussion list literally at your fingertips, converting messages into private, threaded discussion newsgroups that can be reviewed and searched through a simple, powerful web interface. Accidentally delete an important message? It's always just a few clicks away, using the List-To-Newsgroup/Forums service of emailto.com.

One-Way Listserv
A variation on the emailto.com discussion list service, our Broadcast E-mail One-way List service allows one person or group to send an identical message to multiple recipients - but the individual subscribers cannot post messages to the list. Such lists are "Read Only" and are regularly used by online businesses to inform their customer base of product announcements, upgrade releases, press releases and the like. They are also extremely useful for internal corporate memos and messaging, allowing a single recipient address to serve as a relay for every e-mail address in the organization.

Listserv Subscription Options
Similar to discussion lists, Broadcast E-mail One-way Lists enable both public and private subscriptions. Subscribers may join through an online form, through private approved e-mail applications, or both - and you always retain full control over all aspects of your membership and subscription lists.

NOTE: emailto.com is committed to preventing Unsolicited Commercial E-mail (or "spam"), and accordingly, we do not offer such services.
