The concept is easy: You send one email to the
list, and every subscriber receives a copy.
The catch: you need to be a subscriber first.
How to subscribe: Visit the Google Group and sign up. You can have the mail sent to any email address you are already using.
What if I want to Unsubscribe?
You may have already guessed this. For your convenience, instructions
on how to unsubscribe will be included
at the bottom of every
message you recieve. Simply send an email to the unsubscribe address or click below. evbc-list+unsubscribe@googlegroups.com
There are several things you can do if you feel you're getting too
many list messages:
1) You can create a separate folder in your email program and direct
all emails containing "EVBC" in the subject line to go into there,
thereby not cluttering up your inbox. This is the way I have my Gmail
account set up and it works great. In Gmail a separate folder is
called a "Label," though (kinda weird, but it works).
2) You can change your subscription method from individual emails to
either a) Digest or b) an Abridged Email. With each of these you'll
get one email per day.
The Digest will contain up to 25 full messages
bundled into a single email. The only thing I don't like about Digests
in Google groups is when you reply to a topic, it's impossible to keep
the thread together and we might end up with several separate threads
on the same topic (and the threading of topics is one of the cool
things about Google groups and why I prefer them over Yahoo). Because
of that, I actually like (and recommend) the Abridged Email version,
which will also send you a single email message containing a summary
of all daily activity, including links to each separate topic, so that
you can simply click the link to the topic, then go to the Google
group site to respond.
You each should figure out which option is best for you and please
change this yourself. It's not as difficult as you might think. All
you need to do is click the link below, make sure you login with the
same email address you're subscribed under, and make the appropriate
change. Cool?
