_________________________________________________________________________

spamWon't I just get a bunch of SPAM?
This is a moderated listserve, which means, any message that is sent to the listserve has to be approved by the moderator.  The Moderator will delete any SPAM before it ever arrives in your in-box.  Just opportunities - like the name - that's all you'll see.

sendHow can I send an email to the List?
All members can send an email to the List by sending an email to [email protected].  

The email can be composed using any template, HTML; any platform like Gmail, Outlook, etc. Once approved by the moderator, the email will be sent like it was composed individually to all the members of the list. This means that other members will see exactly what you sent originally; formatting, images, and all.
 
getoffHow do I get off this list?
To make this convenient & easy for you, we have already subscribed all current members. If you don't want to receive Opportunities, just click "unsubscribe" at the bottom of any listserve message or e-mail [email protected] and ask to be removed from the list.
 
limitationsAre there limitations to tombstones and artwork used in an e-mail?
No, but depending on the device, a reader might need to download images to see what is in your tombstone.  This can suppress the open rates, so wise use of graphics is encouraged.

Yes and no. You can send any information you like to the listserve, but it is up to the moderators to decide if it's appropriate to send out to the membership. The moderators have a list of acceptable content. If you feel your content is acceptable, but it's not being sent out, contact us at [email protected] to find out why.
