@JimCollinson Is it possible to reach out to all the users on this list, which is quite long, when the network launches? Many have been inactive for a long time.
Spam laws in the UK (& AU) would prevent just sending to everyone and the facility doesn’t exist natively in discourse software.
What does exist is the automatic sending to those asking for it, an update/summary of posts and also if requested an email for any mention of the user and/or threads they watch.
What i am sure will happen is a topic tagging everyone and those who receive email notifications will then receive an email from discourse software.
Also people can subscribe to safe news and receive an email from Maidsafe when they do a mailout.
@neo is right, the system sends them emails. Only admins and moderators have access to the emails of forum members, the MaidSafe team does not have such access.
