Send Email to SJCCC eNews with phpList

As of Easter 2011, we are transitioning our eNews from dadaamail to phpList.  Here is the procedure to send eNew:
  • Start your web browser (Internet Explorer or Firefox), Set "View -> Encoding" to Unicode (UTF-8)
  • Sign in to the SJCCC eNew Control Panel to send email: http://sjccc.org/phplist/admin/ (contact admin for password)
  • Click on "Send a Message" on Right Rail
  • In the Content TAB (by defult), enter subject and message for both HTML and text:  Update Subject Line (Recommend to use the format: "SJCCC eNews: ..." (This can be Chinese and/or English) Enter your message in the box. (This can be Chinese and/or English)
  • Send a test message to yourself
  • Click "Save Changes" before clicking on any other TAB.
  • Click the Lists TAB, and select "SJCCC eNews"
  • Click "Send Message to the Selected MailingLists"
It is recommended that you don't use/edit other TABs:
  • Format TAB: always use the HTML version which always include the text version as the multi-part mime attachment
  • Format TAB: always use the SJCCC Member eNews template which contains the necessary legalese
  • Attach TAB: attachments are not recommended
