The final step of setup before running the server is to create a mail list.
To create a mail list:
|
|
|
1. |
|
Choose "Create New List" from the "Mail Lists" menu item in the Server menu.
A dialog asks you to name the mail list.
The name can be anything that you find useful.
|
|
|
2. |
|
Enter the name of the mail list and click OK.
The mail list window is displayed.

The account is the email account that subscribers will use to send
messages to the list. Make sure that the account does not contain any
spaces or other characters that are illegal in an email address.
Note that although LetterRip Pro automatically uses the name of the
mailing list for the account, you do not need to use the same name.
The name of the mailing list is shown in the window title.
If the incoming email will be retrieved from POP accounts, the pop settings will appear in the dialog.
|
|
|
3. |
|
If the email will be retrieved from a POP account, enter the settings for the account.
For information on the POP account settings, see the section
"Configuring POP account settings" in Chapter 5.
|
|
|
4. |
|
Before a list can communicate with subscribers, it must have an
associated address list.
Click the "New" button next to the Address List popup menu. A dialog asks you to name the address list.
|
|
|
5. |
|
Enter the name of the list and click OK.
The new address list is created and added to the list of address lists.
It is not necessary to add any subscribers to the address list since the subscribers are normally added by sending subscribe commands to the server.
|
|
|
6. |
|
Click the Save button to save the mail list settings.
There are other settings for controlling responses, digests and list moderation. For more information on these settings and managing mail lists, see Chapter XXX, "Setting up a Mail List."
