Notes for use of Group Mailer

  • for the Email/Send Settings you should enter your dialup/Internet access providers mail server name, please consult with them for this information.
  • you should setup a test group comprising of just your own email address then send your email to just that test group prior to sending to your real group.  This gives you chance to see how the email looks before you send it to your members.
