Welcome to the FreeLists community!

Your FreeLists mailing list is ready for use.  Please read this document
carefully and keep it for future reference.

All functions of your list can be controlled through the web by logging in
at //www.freelists.org/login.html  To take full advantage of all
FreeLists features, please login and take a look around.  Many special
features that may appeal to your users are not turned on by default. Please
send a test message to your list to make sure things are functioning
correctly.

Some important starter info:

- To post on your mailing list, simply send email to
elderonmain@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

- Users can subscribe to your list by sending email to
elderonmain-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with 'subscribe' in the Subject field OR by
visiting your list page at //www.freelists.org/list/elderonmain   The
web-based administration suite allows you to add subscribers manually.  If
you have a large list (i.e., thousands of users), feel free to email
staff@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with your subscriber list -- we can add your
subscribers manually (see below).

- Do not unsubscribe from your own
list -- doing so will render you unable to make configuration changes and
perform other administrative tasks.

- Full documentation of the online administration system is available at
//www.freelists.org/help/.  We encourage you to get the most out of the
web interfaces, and we encourage subscribers to do the same.  Please let
your list members know about the advantages of exploring the FreeLists Web
Login.  As an administrator, you can configure site preferences through the
FreeLists Portal Administrator, and list preferences through the
administrative portion of the FreeLists Web Login.  See
//www.freelists.org/login.html for more information.

- View your list's information at //www.freelists.org/list/elderonmain and
your list's webpage (once you set it up) at
//www.freelists.org/webpage/elderonmain

- Online, searchable archives of your list are available at
//www.freelists.org/archive/elderonmain  Each list's archive is
automatically updated as new messages come in.

- There's a FAQ at //www.freelists.org/wiki/the_faq that you might
want to let your subscribers in on.

- There are some general guidlines to configuring your list at
//www.freelists.org/help/recommended-config.html  Any other questions
should be routed to freelists-users, described below.

- Got a large subscriber list?  We can help you subscribe them all!
Subscribing 10,000 users through the web interface can be quite a hassle and
take a long time.  We can do it for you behind-the-scenes: just email
staff@xxxxxxxxxxxxx your subscriber list (in a plain text file, one email
address only per line) and we'll subscribe the users manually.

- We understand that you'll probably want to send some test messages to your
new list to try out the features before putting the list into production.
These messages will appear in the archives, so we've provided a feature that
allows you to remove specific messages at will.  Just log in to the Portal
Administrator and go to "Archive Settings."


If you have any questions or comments, at any point, please feel free to
contact us by visiting //www.freelists.org/contact.html or by emailing
staff@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
