Multiple mailing

[Coldicote]

I run a local community based activity with about 75 members - all of whom have agreed to be on my email list. I am with Wanadoo (Orange) broadband and have been using a group mailing system about twice a week - 75 emails at a time.

Orange's automated system has now decided that I am a spammer and won't accept them. My only alternative at present is to pay extra for dial-up with another ISP. Has anyone out there had similar experience and perhaps able to suggest a good alternative. Thank you.

You don't have to sign up to another ISP to use a different email system. There are many (better ones) on the web -- such as gmail from google:

http://www.gmail.com

If they're still doing it invitation-only, you can ask nicely here and I'm sure someone will send you an invitation (hint hint..)

Thank you fo3nix. I'll have a look at Google gmail. I do have other isp accounts but they are dial-up and cost me extra phone calls, whereas I am paying Orange �17.99 a month for broadband and until recently could send emails via that account. It's not only a matter of another isp but also changing to another broadband provider which could be a bit of a palaver

It's now open to anyone (everyone!) - just follow the link above.

I can send you an invite to gmail if you'd like it. I'll need your email address.

Thank you for this kind offer Sasha13. At the moment I am waiting for a reply from Orange, having written to them, to see if they can resolve the issue I have raised with them. I may be glad to have a Google account and hope you'll not mind if I wait a while and come back to you later.
