MailingListServer
The task of the MailingListServer is to send (if desired, regularly) e-mails to predefined recipient groups, so-called mailing lists.
Instead of flooding the address fields of your mail client with recipient addresses, send your email to a single address. The MailingListServer processes the previously defined mailing list and takes over the task of sending your e-mails to all specified recipients. Naturally, with an individual greeting for each recipient, if desired.
With the MailingListServer you can:
- Introduce new products and services to customers and interested parties
- Send regular newsletters
- Pass statements to the press on time
- Invite investors and selected customers to your trade fair stands
- Distribute event data of all kinds
- Notify existing customers of important changes within the company
Working with the MailingListServer is very simple.
The input masks for creating and maintaining the mailing lists are practically self-explanatory.
If your employee can work with Lotus Notes, they can also maintain the mailing lists.
To send a serial mail, no knowledge of the mail technology and the databases in the background is required.
Advantages
HCL Notes is able to send emails to a large number of recipients. So why use the MailingListServer?
HCL Notes/Domino is an excellent and powerful mail platform. However, the manual creation and maintenance of extensive recipient lists in the Notes address books has its limits. This is especially true for dynamic mailing lists where members can subscribe and unsubscribe themselves.
The MailingListServer offers this option. You will find everything you need for a successful mailing campaign optimised in an attractive database design. All you have to do is write your e-mail.
The perfect addition
MailingListServer is a native application for the HCL Notes/Domino platform. It was developed exclusively for use on HCL Domino servers. It therefore fits seamlessly into the concept and interfaces of this platform and runs on any system with HCL Domino R6.0 or higher.

Easy does not mean simple here.

Installation
Installing MailingListServer has never been so easy.
For the current version of MailingListServer, the installation routine has been completely revised and simplified enormously. All functions are integrated in an installation database (*.nsf) and the actual installation process is fully automated.
You only need to specify the storage location for MailingListServer and the help database for the installation.
Note for Notes administrators:
Under "Additional options", you can select whether a sample mail list should be created during installation and whether a mail-in entry should be written to the Domino directory. If you do not want to allow write access for external programmes, you can also set the entry manually.
The MailingListServer is ready for use immediately after installation and the first mailing list can be created. You can then create the relevant e-mail either in MailingListServer, Lotus Notes or another mail client.
If not deactivated during installation, the MailingListServer agent will then periodically send out pending emails every 5 minutes. You don't want to wait, you want the mail to go out immediately? One click is all it takes.
