Is there a way to have my users subscribe to my mailing list through a simple form?


Answer by: Stuart Pierce, Knowledge Base Support

In order to allow people to automatically subscribe / unsubscribe from your mailing list, you will need first to set the Auto subscribe / unsubscribe option to YES. Here is how to do that using the Aplus.Net Control Panel:

  1. Start by logging into the Aplus.Net Web Control Panel at http://cp.aplus.net using your Registration Number and Customer Password.
  2. Select the Emails link from the top navigation bar.
  3. Next, select Email Lists and click on Manage Email Lists.
  4. Click on the name of the email list that you’d like to manage.
  5. Click the Mailing List Manager icon.
  6. Now, set both options Auto subscribe and Auto unsubscribe to Yes using the respective drop-down boxes.
Note: If you check the box next to CC subscriptions or CC unsubscriptions, a notification will be sent to the maintainer email address about every request.

At this point, people can subscribe / unsubscribe from the mailing list by sending an email.

EXAMPLE:

Your list address is list@yourdomain.com.

  • To subscribe people should send an email to list-request@yourdomain.com with subject subscribe.
  • To unsubscribe people should send an email to list-request@yourdomain.com with subject unsubscribe.
