>>>Hi,
>>>
>>>The tennis club to which I belong has an email group list (5-6 emails of members of the board). If an email is sent to the email info@ourclubname.org, all 5-6 members of the board receive this email. This email group was created in GoDaddy (which hosts our web site). GoDaddy no longer supports the feature of the group email list.

>>>What alternatives you would suggest, as far as creating an email list? And maintaining it outside GoDaddy, which will continue (for the time being) hosting the web site.

>I don't know. I only know that the web master informed me that we no longer have a group email by which all members of the board were notified by one email. I wanted to help him to find an alternative solution.

If you have a webmaster they should be able to offer alternatives.

One potentially low cost approach would be Gmail: https://clean.email/blog/email-providers/how-to-create-a-distribution-list-in-gmail . The main downside to that would be that you would need to switch from DistGroup@MyTennisClub.org to MyTennisDistGroup@gmail.com . If you want to retain your current mail domain that probably won't work for you.

You may want to give some thought to setting up a shared mailbox rather than using a distribution list. One advantage of the former is that all delegates can see everything that has happened with that mailbox and e-mail address - everything received and everything sent by any delegate. In contrast, a distribution list just sends copies of incoming mail to the list members. When they reply, the members can't see each other's replies unless they remember to cc: each other, which can be a pain.
Regards. Al
