Subject: [MLHS PTSA] Transition to New Email Service
To: mlhs...@googlegroups.com, "MLHS...@googlegroups.com" <MLHS...@googlegroups.com>

The Mira Loma IBPO and PTSA groups are switching this week from Google to the Constant Contact email service.  Constant Contact is a reputable web-based email provider which will make it easier for our volunteer board members to communicate with the membership.  Note to those who belong to both groups: if the same email goes out to PTSA and IBPO you will receive only one email!    Other Mira Loma parent groups will continue to use their current email method.

 

Look for the new email format this week!  Information about Constant Contact:

Janice,

I am on the board of two non profits with no paid staff.  May I inquire into how much this email service is.  Putting out mailiers to large groups of people through yahoo or others is a burden as they think we are spamming.  So we have to put email out n small bunches.  Yahoo groups and google groups have other limitations. My understanding is that Constant Contact also allows something other than plain text.  So if there are graphics from a flyer, they can be included, right?

Thanks,

Allison
