e-mail and lists

email list

[Jorb]

I'm not sure how to do this, so I figured I'd ask for suggestions.

My boss wants me to create a mailing list of our clients, and for the mail to all be sent out from sales@ourdomain(dot)com

When our clients respond, or mail is sent to sale@ he wants it to be sent to everyone in the sales department.

I'm kinda n00b at email configuration. Any software out there that does this? Any general suggestions about how to do this?

clarification:

that's sales -> clients

clients -> sales -> employees

If you are using Exchange, this is really simple. Although I am sure every other mail program does this as well, as it is a fairly simple thing you are trying to achieve.

Emails Outgoing: could be a distribution list that is sent BCC, or you can use Word and do an email merge.

Emails Incoming: Simply define the employees who should be receiving the incoming mails to the internal distribution list, which is basically the alias for Sales.

Your exchange administrator (or any mail admin) should be able to do this in about 10 minutes.

Thanks for the ideas.
