Q: When sending a LISTSERV Maestro mailing to a regular LISTSERV list, only blind tracking is possible. How can I get the richer set of tracking options and still get the benefits of a LISTSERV list, such as archives?
Answer by Françoise Becker
VP Software Engineering, L-Soft
There are several possible solutions, depending on which tracking features and which LISTSERV list features are desired. Three of these solutions are described below:
- Use a LISTSERV list with Mail-Merge=Yes
- Use a Maestro Hosted LISTSERV List (HLL)
- Use a Maestro Hosted Recipient List (HRL) to which a LISTSERV list is subscribed for archival purposes only.
