Family Internet MailCall Info
This page also availabe via email from family-info@mailcall.com
This message describes the
Family Internet MailCall service and why you might consider setting one
up. It is our most popular internet mailing service.
- What is Family Internet MailCall?
Family Internet
MailCall service lets you deliver mail to a small group of internet
addresses conveniently. The important point is that you send one
piece of mail and MailCall automatically sends copies to everyone
subscribing to that MailCall service. Internet MailCall delivers!
- How would a Family Internet MailCall work?
As an
example, lets assume that a small group of family members consisting
of a father, his daughter and his son established a MailCall service
using the name Smith. The father would send a message to
smith@mailcall.com and copies would immediately go to his
daughter and to his son. His son could send a response to smith@mailcall.com
and his father and sister would get copies of the response.
- Can't I just send out duplicate copies myself without MailCall?
MailCall makes it more convenient than doing it yourself.
Sure, you may be a wizard with your newsreader, but other members of
your family are probably not. With MailCall, everyone doesn't have
to keep track of the internet mailing address of everyone else in the
group. Members can even change their address without needing to
inform everyone else. MailCall provides a simple convenience to
increase your communications. This convenience becomes more
important the larger the group.
- Who would use Family Internet MailCall service?
- Grown Families. A grown family has members scatter around
the country or the world. With MailCall they write one email message
and everyone in the family gets the message to read at their own
time and convenience. The family continues to grow.
- Extended Families. Grandparents, cousins, aunts and uncles
can become closer to your family with a MailCall service. Share
your family's news more often with people you love.
- Parents in Different Cities. Due to economic or other
reasons, one parent is often located in a different city. With a
MailCall service, everyone can stay in touch inexpensively while
improving the writing skills of younger family members.
- Small groups. Not only families use the MailCall service.
There is a girl scout troop using MailCall. These girls will stay in
touch as they grow, even if they move to different cities.
- Study groups. A bible study group is looking at using
MailCall to keep in touch between meetings.
(More information is available about other uses of MailCall by sending
email to: mailcall-info@mailcall.com
or on our other
Web page.)
- What does someone need to participate in a Internet MailCall
service?
An internet address is all that is needed. Members
do not need to use the same internet service. For example, in a
Family MailCall the father may get his mail at the office, the
daughter at her college internet account and the son through a
commercial account like American OnLine or Prodigy.
- What is the price for a Internet MailCall account?
There
is a setup charge for starting a MailCall account and a quarterly
charge for maintaining the account. Our four types of accounts allow
for different number of participants to a MailCall.
Setup Quarterly Participants
Family $ 50 $ 20 1- 10
The setup fee includes the first quarterly fee. For example,
the first year of service for a Family Internet MailCall would only
be $110.
- Okay, how do I start an Internet MailCall service of my own?

send it through the post office. Once we receive your application, it
will usually take us a few days to process it. When your Family
Internet MailCall is setup, you and the people you list on the
