E-mail list servers

SECURE e-mail list servers are a good way for teachers at a site to exchange information. We have been doing this at De Anza for over two years. Basically, only De Anza teachers can subscribe to this list and only the list adminstrator (in this case me) can send out the e-mail. Teachers e-mail me what they want posted it and I post it. (I might edit it for grammar and spelling or objectionable content.) I also use the list to report on UTR meetings, grievances, teacher get togethers etc. I use Xtreme mail http://www.emailxtreme.com/ (all list servers are run through the internet). I did a lot of research and chose this list server because it is very secure and it's free for lists under 50 names. From 50 to 100 it's only $5 or $10 a month and the first 3 months are free. I would be very happy to help anyone set up a list for their school. Please contact me at espanol@speakeasy.net Barbara Schaffer, De Anza.
