e-mail?

I set up an e-mail "account" for our group on yahoo. I told the officers the username/password to see the messages (not that we've ever had any :rolleyes: ), since they're the only ones who'd be responsible for answering them on the behalf of the group anyway.

We really want to set upa web page--any hints or "lessons learned" that you could pass along? Who to use (or not!) as a server, payments, what to have on the website.

You've been missed.

I thought about asking for a hotmail account. In the past had put my personal email on EVERYTHING, I wondered if people didn't want to contact me there because they thought it was too personal(not because they just didn't care) and I also wondered if I set up a hotmail account as our PTO if that would help. If I am elected it would benefit me to have something I check from home, but I wouldn't be able to check that at the boys school AND if I could beg hard enough for the PTO to get their own account from the school's server I wouldn't be able to check it at home. I would mainly want it to use it to send out reminders and rope a few volunteers.

How many really needs to see emails? If you had a person designated you could put those who wanted to be contacted in the address book and forward everything that needed to be shared.

I just spent the last month fighting with too many companies :mad: about what could have happened to our e-mail and internet service. As you can see all was settled (until we get billed :rolleyes: ) but in the meantime MY e-mail address is used for everything we do! I really want to ask the school to set-up an address for us but not sure what kind of details I should think about first.

The school has a website but it's...ssshhh...it's a joke. The PTO had an e-mail address a year or so ago but I think it was mainly an issue of trusting the gal sending messages/gossip...yay. Do I suggest a simple "Hotmail" account anyone can check, an address to the school?
I want to keep it simple.

I guess I'm sending out an SOS! ;)
