How do I send out a message?

  1. Compose your message in any email program.
  2. Add your posting password to the subject line.
  3. Send it to <control-yourlistID@cctomany.com> for immediate distribution.

How do I include an unsubscribe link in my messages?

Insert these lines into your message: 

You are subscribed as: _email_ 
To REMOVE or CHANGE this address, click here:
 _unsuburl_

The variables _email_ and _unsuburl_ will be converted to the recipient's email address and unique unsubscribe page as the message is delivered.

How do people get subscribed to my list?

  • If yours is a public list, you will need to add a signup form to your web site.
  • If yours is a private list, then you add subscribers via this interface. Use the "Add/Remove Recipients" link.

How do I add a subscribe/unsubscribe form to my web site?

Add a form like this to your web page(s): 

<form method="POST" action="http://www.cctomany.com/su.php"><p>
<input type="text"  name="Email" size="20"><br>
<input type="radio" name="Action" value="join-yourlistID" checked>Subscribe 
<input type="radio" name="Action" value="leave-yourlistID">Unsubscribe</p>
<input type="hidden" name="ThanksURL" value="2222">
<input type="submit" value="Do It">
</form>

You must make one edit to the code above:

  1. On line 5, replace 2222 with the full URL of a thank-you landing page on your website, which will be displayed upon a successful submission. On that page, be sure to say that the recipient must reply to the confirmation email they've just been sent in order to complete their subscription.

Alternative: you can also use a pre-built signup form on our server. Just link to http://www.cctomany.com/sub/yourlistID - but that form may not provide the "look and feel" you want, nor will it reside within your existing web page(s). Putting it into a pop-up window may work, but some browser settings prevent pop-up windows.

Bounces

By default, bounces are re-directed back to our server where they are removed after three successive bounces.
