Mailing lists on cPanel

Mailing lists allow you to send emails to several recipients at once.
This feature is very useful when you need to send a newsletter or send emails to a group of people.

This tutorial shows you how to create a mailing list on your cPanel hosting.

Creating a mailing list on cPanel

To create a mailing list, connect to your cPanel, go to the Email section and then click on the "Mailing lists" icon.

On the next page, we'll configure our mailing list:

• List name: Enter the name of the mailing list
• Choose the domain
• Password: Enter the password for the mailing list or generate a strong password using the Password Generator button.
• Retype the password.
• Access type: Public: subscriptions are open. Private: subscriptions must be approved by the administrator.
• Click the Add button to save the settings.
• To add users to the "Bulk subscription" mailing list and assign administrative rights to available "Delegation" users, follow the section Managing mailing lists after creation

Mailing list management

All the mailing lists you have created will be listed in the Current lists section:

The list contains the following options:

• Whether or not to send a welcome email to customers when they subscribe to the mailing list
