'''Distribution list''' is a term sometimes used for a function of an email client program where a list of email addresses is used to email everyone on the list at once. This can be referred to as an electronic mailshot. It differs from a [[mailing list]], [[electronic mailing list]] or the email option found in an [[Internet forum]] as it is usually for one way traffic and not for coordinating a discussion. In effect, only members of a distribution list can send mails to the list. |
