Mailing List Information—Subscription Type

Subscribers are added by subscription type, so select the subscription type(s) for the new subscribers. Each subscriber will have a new subscription added for each selected type, so if multiple types are selected, multiple subscriptions will be added for each subscriber.

Regular Subscriber

Users who elect to receive every email that is to the list as a separate email.

Digest Subscriber

Users who elect to receive batched email (i.e., many email messages rolled into one). By default, a digest subscriber receives email after 30 messages, 48 hours or 64 KB of message body text have accumulated since the last digest.

Poster

To allow posts from an address that does not belong to a subscriber, add the address as a poster. Posters are not recognized by lists that only accept posts from moderators and are unnecessary for lists that accept posts from anyone.

Moderator

A moderator is an individual or groups of individuals in charge of a list. Moderation helps ensure that unwanted email does not get posted to a list.

Subscribers

Add the subscribers. There are two ways to add subscribers: select an existing subscriber from a list or enter email addresses for one or more subscribers.

Note

If you want to subscribe an individual who is known to have previously subscribed to a list or to exist in the Kavi® Members database, select them from the list. Otherwise, it is far more convenient to simply paste subscriber email addresses into the Add Email Addresses field provided.

Select a Subscriber

To add a new subscription for a single subscriber already listed in the database, use the Lookup field to populate the Select Subscriber pull-down list.

Add Email Addresses

To enter up to 1000 email addresses in a batch, type or paste email addresses into the Add Email Addresses text box. Addresses must be text only, and separated by a new line or a comma, e.g., bob@example.com,shirley@example.com.

You may enter both member and nonmember email addresses. When you use this text box to add subscribers, you do not need to reselect these new subscribers via the Select a Subscriber field. Kavi® Mailing List Manager will sort these addresses into members and nonmembers for you to preview on the next step.

You don't have to worry about adding duplicate subscriptions because the Mailing List Manager manages duplicate addresses for you. When a duplicate email address is entered (either because that address already appears on the subscription list or because the address appears twice on the list of bulk addresses) no error is displayed, but the software ignores the request to add the duplicate and displays the address in the list of subscribers on the Preview page.
