i have copied the text of my earlier email into this message (below)
Following the AGM IT workshop, I am going to try out the LDWA bulk email facility, using the “customised” list facility.
I am initially setting up a test list, just for committee members . so that if it all goes wrong, we are the guinea pigs.
So I will send out a test email today. Let me know if you do (or don’t) receive it.
One issue which I do not really know how to deal with, is the small number of Dorset LDWA members who have checked the “ no email address” box on the LDWA Local Groups Admin site. Some of these members actually do have an email address and want me to use it . If the bulk email custom list works OK , I am not going to run another private list* using Outlook to include this tiny minority. *it just gets too confusing . I think it is up to them to update their entry on the LDWA membership list. (I will notify them of this )
I do not yet know how easy it will be to forward emails using the bulk email custom list. If this is a problem……
