Squadron Mailing Lists
There are two primary mailing lists maintained by the squadron: one for cadets and one for seniors. Both are standard mailing lists used for squadron communication of meetings and special events.
If you have any questions about these mailing lists that is not answered below, please contact Capt. Rangi Keen.
Subscribing
If you are a member of the squadron, you will be subscribed to the mailing list with your lebanoncap.org e-mail (described below). If you are a parent of a cadet and wish to subscribe to the cadets group, send a message to cadets-subscribe at lebanoncap dot org from the address you wish to subscribe. You will receive an immediate response confirming that you want to subscribe. Reply to this message and include in the body of the message the cadet you are related to. The moderators of the group will need this information to determine that the request is legitimate.
Once the moderators receive the request and approve it, you will receive a message welcoming you to the group. You may wish to keep this message for future reference as it contains details on how to use the list and unsubscribe.
Unsubscribing
When you leave the squadron, your e-mail account will be removed and your subscription to the mailing lists will be terminated. If you would like to unsubscribe before your membership expires (or are not a member such as a parent of a cadet), simply send a message to cadets-unsubscribe at lebanoncap dot org from the account that is subscribed.
E-mail Accounts
Every member of the Lebanon Composite Squadron receives an e-mail account @lebanoncap.org when joining. Your e-mail acount name will be your first initial and full last name (unless it is already taken). You will receive the login information via e-mail after your account is created.
Each account is initially set up to forward mail to the e-mail address you provide on your application. However, you can choose to turn off the forwarding and use the account directly either via the web interface or using a desktop e-mail application. Note that there is a 5 MB limit on your mailbox.
Accessing Webmail
You can access your account to read mail and change settings such as your password, forwarding options, and more at http://webmail.lebanoncap.org/. Login with your e-mail alias (the part before the @ symbol in your address) and the password you received in your welcome e-mail.
The first thing you should do when logging in for the first time is change your password. You can do this by going to the options tab at the top and clicking the change password link. If you would like to change your forwarding options (including adding additional addresses), you can do this under the options tab as well.
Accessing mail using a desktop application
If you would like to send and receive your e-mail using a desktop application such as Apple Mail, Outlook, or Thunderbird (or other similar applications), please use the following settings:
Account ID: Use your full e-mail address (e.g. flast@lebanoncap.org)
POP Server: mail.lebanoncap.org
SMTP Server: mail.lebanoncap.org
SMTP Port: 25 (default) or 587 (if your ISP blocks port 25)
Note that before you can send a message from your e-mail application you must first check your mail. This is how the server authenticates you as a valid user to prevent spammers from using the mail server.
