Magic Mailing Lists

What Are They?

Magic mailing lists are mailing lists created automatically by TroopTrack for you that figure out the recipients of the list based on their position in the troop. TroopTrack comes with the following magic mailing lists:


NameRecipients
parents@trooptrack.comEvery active adult with youth in the same household
scouts@trooptrack.comEvery active youth in your unit
leaders@trooptrack.comEvery active member of your unit with a leadership position
members@trooptrack.comEvery active member of your unit
adults@trooptrack.comEvery active adult member of your unit
patrolABC@trooptrack.comEvery active member of the patrol (one for each patrol)

Note: You can rename these mailing lists to whatever you want, so please refer to Communicate > Magic Mailing Lists for an exact list.

How To Get There

Just click on the Communicate menu, then select Magic Mailing Lists from the dropdown menu.

Managing Senders

Even though recipients are managed automatically, senders are managed just like custom email distribution lists, so you will need to specify who is allowed to send to each list.
