After clicking on that link, your Custom Mailing Groups will be displayed,if any are available. To create
new "Mailing Group", click on the "Create New Group" link.
Enter the Last Name, Member ID, or Member SS to begin your new Custom Mail
Group. In this example, I will search for member's last name that begins with
'A'.
You will notice that the names are listed in alphabetical order by last name.
Also, in the brownish/yellow, you will see that it will displacy records in increments
of 10. By click on Next, or Last will take you through the alphabet. Also, First and
Prior will become available as you move through the names. By clicking on the
member's name, you begin adding names to your Custom Email Group.
You will notice that Troy is added to our mail list. It provides his Full Name, NAIFA Member ID,
Association, and an option to "Remove" him from the list. You can continue to build your
list by doing another search and continue to do this until your group is complete. (You can
also edit this group to add new members or remove members that you do not want on the list.)
When you are finished, click on the "Proceed to Mailing" button.
This is where you will name your Custom Email Group. Type in the name of the group
and click on the "Proceed" button.
In this case, I named the Custom Email Group "Test". You can see the "Edit Group" link
is available and this will allow you to add and or remove members from your Custom Email
Group. By clicking on the "Mail to Group" link, the broadcast email window is now available.
At this point, you will enter "Your Email Address","Subject", and a "Message" in the appropriate
fields.
