Emerald Hills Homeowners E-mail List

An EHHOA member E-mail list exists to allow anyone in the list to easily communicate with everyone else in the list. This communication method is often referred to as a 'listserv'. Anyone in the list can send an E-mail to all of the list members simply by using the link or by sending an E-mail to the list name. Remember that many of your neighbors will received your E-mail. Please keep your note text appropriate. The characters '[EHHOA]' will be prefixed to the subject of all notes sent to the member E-mail list.

Quick access links are directly below. Please review the instructional text and usage notes below before proceeding.

Joining the list (Subscribe)
EHHOA members who have supplied their E-mail id to the association are automatically subscribed to the E-mail list. You can subscribe as many ids as you like for your family. The list moderator must verify that you actually live in Emerald Hills before approval. Please be patient.
Removing your id (Unsubscribe, Manage your subscription)
Unsubscribe by using the above link. Unsubcribing from the list also removes that E-mail id from the EHHOA database. EHHOA staff uses the member database to send out news and event information thus you will miss out on information sent by your HOA. If you use the 'change your subscription function', please DO NOT CHANGE YOUR NAME as all subscriptions are named only by account code and not your actual name. Old, failing E-mail ids, are automatically unsubscribed.
Sending to the whole list ( )
To send an E-mail to the list, just select the ' ' link to compose your note. Everyone in the list will get your note. If the 'Send' link does not work for you then you may send your note to 'ehhoa-members@ehhoa.info'. The E-mail will appear to come from your E-mail id allowing those getting it to reply directly back to you. This will then allow all members of the list to communicate jointly through a single E-mail id. Be sure to use suitable Subject for your note.
