Newsletter information

Posted By Werner Grundlingh On In | Comments Disabled

Our web hosting company provides a Mailman service [1] to distribute information to its subscribers. The newsletter mailing list is called news and conveniently goes by the name news@capitalregionbeekeepers.ca. Subscription to/removal from this list can be managed entirely through email.

How do I subscribe to the newsletter? [2]

The newsletter mailing list is moderated to avoid anyone from just sending emails to everyone on the list. In the same way, newsletter subscription is limited to members only. So, if you’re a member of the club [3], send an email to news-join@capitalregionbeekeepers.ca [4]. No email subject or body content is required, just a blank email. The request will be put in the moderator queue for reviewal and processed within a day or so.

Make sure content you receive from news@capitalregionbeekeepers.ca [5] doesn’t end up in your spam or trash folder. That would just be useless, right?

How do I remove my subscription from the list? [2]

Send an email to news-leave@capitalregionbeekeepers.ca [7]. You should receive a confirmation email requesting that you accept your removal from the mailing list. It looks similar to one received for subscription (see above). It may take a while for this process to complete and remove you from our list, but this is normal.

Once you receive the email, simply click on the provided link and hit “Unsubscribe”.

Can I post a message to the subscription list? [2]

No. The news@capitalregionbeekeepers.ca [5] list is moderated with all messages received being rejected by default. Don’t worry, you’ll get a personable rejection response.

I don't understand any of this. Help! [2]

Send an email with your request to beeline@capitalregionbeekeepers.ca [9] and the Beeline editor will manage your subscription to/removal from the newsletter list.
