How Do I Send Mail From GroupSpaces To All Members?

First off, you’ll need to create a GroupSpaces account if you don’t have one already. This is completely independent of the IMC Group we have on GroupSpaces but you need it in order to administer our group (and send mails, etc).

To create a GroupSpaces account, register here using the same email address GroupSpaces uses for you in the IMC Group. GroupSpaces will then realise you are a member of the IMC Group when you log in (on left hand side you should see “My Groups” with Irish Mountaineering Club below and a “Manage” link to click on).

Once logged in, to send a mail to all members, go to the main Manage page. There are 2 ways to access the “Send Mail” page:

1. On the Manage page (“Dashboard” tab) there is a Mailing List section with  a “Compose Email” button.  Hit the “Compose Email” button.
2. Click the “Emails” tab and then hit the misleadingly named “Send email newsletters” link.

Either way takes you to the “Compose Email” page to fill out the Subject, Message and add any Attachments, etc. Verify that the From: email address is the one you want and that To: is going to “All Members”.

Once written, hit “Preview” button (if you are still unsure of formatting, you can now send a test copy of the message to your own email address) and then, when happy, hit “Send”.
