General Information<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Today we are going to cover how to create and use mailing lists in cPanel. If you are not already familiar with the concept, mailing lists allow you to use a single email address to send mail to multiple recipients. Whether you\u2019re working in a business environment, or simply using it for online marketing purposes, mailing lists play an important role in business to customer relationships. If managed properly and understood, they can be an effective strategy to boost sales and efficiently manage your customer\/user base.<\/p>\n

Keep in mind that adding addresses to your mailing lists without user approval may result in spam reports and unwanted email traffic. It is a commonly used best-practice that you offer users the option to unsubscribe.<\/p>\n

Another important note is that, in order to manage mailing lists, cPanel uses a third-party web application called Mailman<\/strong>. You can read more instructions about this software by following this article<\/a>.<\/p>\n
