#MAILIST HOTMAIL SOFTWARE#
The only kind of message that reliably gets through spam-filters and does not cause privacy concerns is an individually-addressed email to each address, which was not previously practical via a radio link.Īs a service for Sailmail members we’ve written some new software and created a special address (as part of the Saildocs weather server) for handling group mailing. BCC’s or “blind copies”, where the CC-addresses are hidden, are another possibility but those are often used by spammers and are increasingly being blocked by spam-filters. Additionally, many folks do not want their email addresses to appear on long CC-lists for privacy reasons. However, with the increased concern over “spam” (junk email), many internet services are blocking messages with large numbers of CC’s. Traditionally, messages were sent to family and friends using “CC” addresses, allowing one message to be sent to multiple recipients. A “relay” feature is available for Sailmail members, to make sending group messages easier.
