Q: How can I maintain a dynamic list of people authorized to manage or post to multiple lists?
Answer by Liam Kelly
Senior Consulting Analyst, L-Soft
When managing a single list, maintaining access permissions is as simple as including the list of authorized addresses in the list header. But when managing many lists with a common set of owners or editors, manually maintaining each list header individually may not be practical. Fortunately, there are at least three different ways to save time and simplify the task with LISTSERV.

Q: How Can I Use Conditional Blocks to Deliver Customized Messages to Subscribers?
Answer by Ben Parker
Chief Corporate Consultant, L-Soft
A user of LISTSERV Maestro has a need to deliver customized notification emails to subscribers based on data fields they indicated interest in when subscribing to the list. The notification emails report lottery winning numbers, but there are 5 possible games and not everyone participates in all 5 games. The desire is to send out one daily notification email with only the winning numbers for the games specified by each recipient. By using the conditional blocks feature in the message content, it is possible to do this all in one email message and with only one mailing job.
