Using FTP There is now an enormous amount of reliable information on the Internet which you can use for your business and to assist you to comply with regulatory requirements of various kinds. You can download application forms, tender documents, government policy documents and legislative requirements. Distribution lists Distribution lists and discussion lists have elements in common, but they are worth considering separately as their functions are quite different. There is also now a number of different free Web-based distribution lists you can use. The disadvantage can be their advertising appearing on your distribution list messages.
Distribution lists can work like electronic newsletters.
They can operate within an organisation - for example to send out the latest staff notice to all staff, or can be used by an organisation to promote its activities to its external audience. Organisations or individuals may operate a number of different distribution lists for different purposes. You subscribe to them. You may be on them automatically because you have an email address in an organisation. Information is sent to you.
