[Fuusm-l] Guide to fuusm email lists

[tech at fuusm.org]

Folks,

Since we have many new members and friends, I thought it worthwhile to send out this information again.  And there have been some changes since the last time. Please note that this info is posted on the website under "Resources" in the "Members (and Friends) area of the website.  If you don't have access to this area, see the info at the bottom of this message for instructions.

Hope this is all helpful,
Ralph Olander, Webmaster

FUUSM Email lists

E-mail lists (also called listservs)  are a convenient tool for a set number of people with a common interest to communicate with one another--all to one and one to all.  Just send your mail to the listed address and it goes to all members of that list. There are several active now (see below) and any number can be created if you have a need. 

Send an email to tech at fuusm.org <mailto:tech at fuusm.org> if want to subscibe or unsubscribe to one of these lists or if you have a committee or a project and want a list set up for you.

PLEASE NOTE: Be careful if you want to reply to a message received from one of these lists to only the person posting to the list. DO NOT use the  "Reply" or "Reply all" button in your email program. Most lists, as noted below, already reply to all the list members when you use those functions because they are smaller topic-focused lists. 

To reply to the person posting, highlight their personal email address at the top of the email, right click and select the item that will send a new email to that person. (The exact wording differs from program to program.)

Note to users of gmail, hotmail, yahoo, and similar web-based mail systems: If you are not receiving emails from the church you expect to, note that these systems frequently think fuusm.org <http://fuusm.org/> email is spam and send it to your junk/spam folder. Check that first and if that is what happened, mark it as "not junk/spam". Putting the list's email address in your address book should also prevent this from happening again.
