Hi Malik,
Thank you for sharing the tip about filtering. I use it.
I do believe there are even more efficient ways:
1) I am not sure why the forum of our club is not working, bu maybe it's the
way http://forums.toastmastersclub.org/
2) I believe MeetUp page is an excellent way to communicate. We can post on
boards and sign up for a daily update.
That way we will read all the messages in a clear and convenient way, in a
chronological order, rather than reading the most recent responses through
email first and then reading emails trying to figure out where the discussion
started.
MeetUp also tracks attendance and is a marketing tool. There are plenty of
other ToastMasters clubs in there. It's great to share files as well.
3) We have personal emails of each other and instead of answering all we can
answer personally.
Thanks,
Samantha

Well, an email distribution list exists because it has certain advantages than
handpicking individual recepients in a large group such as our TM club.
Webmaster email system does something similar but is one way only and has
access only for club officers.
The problem of receiving too many emails can be addressed by creating email
filtering rules. I have setup a folder in my mail named Toastmasters where all
such mails go. I recommend others to try setting up such filtering rules. At my
work, I sometimes recieve 100+ emails and to keep on top of them, you have to
use smart techniques.
Regards
Malik
