Group Email Discussion Lists
The best solutions for any group that needs private and direct online communication; with advanced email list hosting tools supporting various list configuration for all asynchronous discussions.
Web interface:
A web interface connection creates an easy way for people to subscribe, leave and change their settings. Members can also search, read and contribute from the web.
Fast text searching:
All archives may be indexed for fast searching. Search on a particular word used in a message; specify the location of the words in the message. (i.e. header), or exclude them altogether.
Confirmation:
An “are you sure you want to join” message can be sent to new subscribers to confirm their email address and ensure someone else did not subscribe to the list as a prank.
Compatible:
The system accepts common commands used by other list services: you do not have to relearn commands.
Protected membership:
