How to create Email Discussion Lists using cPanel

Overview

Mailing lists can be used to send messages frequently to a large amount of people for things such as newsletters, product updates, and more. cPanel allows you to update and configure your mailing lists to easily send out information to large groups of people.

Steps

1  To access the Mail Menu, click on the  icon above the word Mail on the main screen of your cPanel interface.

2  To add a mailing list, click on Add Mailing List.

3  Every list needs a unique name. Enter the list's name and password into their respective blank fields.

4  Select the domain the list is for from the drop box and click Create.

NOTE: If the list was created successfully, the following will appear (except the information will reflect the information you provided above in the blank fields):

Mailing List Created

The mailing list name_of_list on domain.com with password pass_word was successfully created.

Hit enter to notify name_of_list_domain.com owner...

Updated List name_of_list domain.com

5  Click on Go Back.

6  Click on Edit to set up the list.

Troubleshooting

Make sure to keep your lists updated as old email addresses that no longer exist may cause errors for the mail server.
