A mailing list allows you to use a single email address to send email to multiple email addresses. Recipients of the email will not see a long list of email addresses of other individuals who also received the message. Hence, a security feature to prevent disclosing your entire mailing list to potential spammers.
Create The Mailing List
List name must not conflict with an email address already in use. It will be the email address recipients see as the sender.
Creating a “Private” list will require the admin to allow new subscriptions and will not be advertised. Choose this option.
Creating a “Public” list will allow anyone to subscribe and will not be advertised.
Add Recipients
Click Manage in the cPanel menu. Then click Member Management… Next, click Mass Subscription.
Finally, add the email addresses + your own email, one address per line and click Submit Your Changes
