WWWScribe - Internet Mailing Lists Electronic Mail is increasing important in business. Here we explain how to take advantage of Internet Mailing Lists. All Rights Reserved.
Lists are in essence global discussion groups via e-mail.
Everyone on the list sends mail to a common address, which is then remailed to everyone else on the list. Everyone on the list gets a copy of what you write, and you get a copy of what everyone else writes. Mailing lists can be moderated or unmoderated. With a moderated list, an editor reviews all submissions and posts the most relevant ones. Unmoderated lists are automated by a mail server program, which receives and distributes mail to the list.
