Mailing list

Post by entrecon » Fri Oct 05, 2007 4:36 am

I am working on a website for a non-profit organization that would like to set-up mailing lists for their membership. One list might be board members only, another might be full membership, certain committees might have their own list too. Anyone else doing this? What tools are you using?

Currently they have a Yahoo account and one member has access to log-in and do an e-mail blast.

I have seen the Newsletter tools such as letterman and Yanc, but these both seem to be much more than they need. They just need an easy way to send an e-mail to a group of people withing the membership. The largest list would have less than 100 people on it.

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Update: I was planning on incorporating Community Builder and it appears there is a mailing module that will work to send to specific groups. I will try it out, but am still looking for your suggestions.

I am looking for something like this also. 

I want to have list that anyone can sign up to and other list that only registered user (on community builder) can sign up to.

The key feature that I need is to let the registered users send emails to the list after they log in.  It would be great if the email to the list shows who the email came from so people can reply back to that person.

To me this sounds like a mailing list but I can find anything out there.  Hopefully someone can help.
Thanks,
JC
