Introduction to the
BETHISRAELMV List
We use the email list services provided by the USCJ to send
announcements
to the Beth Israel community.
One of the advantages of the
mailing list service is that it
lets subscribers manage their own subscriptions using the web interface. It lets users add, remove,
and change their own email addresses as
well as read previous messages. Instructions
are proided further down the
page.
The system also allows
individual
subscribers a number of options for
how they want to receive messages:
- regular is
individual messages by email as they are
posted
- no mail lets
you remain on the list without receiving emails and read
the messages using the web
interface
- digest
options
that aggregate multiple messages together
- index
options that just provide brief summaries giving the sender
and subject lines along with details on how to get the full
message.
