Email Mailing Lists

Send emails to groups of people using a single address.

Email Forwarders (Simple Group)

For small groups, use email forwarders in cPanel:

1. Go to Forwarders
2. Click Add Forwarder
3. Create an address like [email protected]
4. Forward to multiple email addresses

Mailing List in cPanel

If available on your plan:

1. Go to Mailing Lists
2. Click Add Mailing List
3. Set the list name and password
4. Configure settings:

- Who can send to the list

- Subscribe/unsubscribe options

- Archive settings

Best Practices for Bulk Email

• Always get permission before adding people
• Include an unsubscribe link
• Use a proper email marketing service for large lists (500+)
• Keep your list clean — remove bouncing addresses
• Follow CAN-SPAM / GDPR rules

Recommended Email Marketing Services

For professional newsletters and marketing:

• Mailchimp — Free up to 500 contacts
• Sendinblue — Free up to 300 emails/day
• Amazon SES — Pay per email (cheapest for volume)

Troubleshooting

• Emails going to spam: Use proper SPF/DKIM/DMARC records
• Bouncing emails: Remove invalid addresses from your list
• Server throttling: Shared hosting limits outgoing email (usually 500/hr)
