Overview
Groups is a role and permission-based email communication system. Groups administrators can select between four different configurations:
- Email List (For regular communication with a defined list of users)
- Web Forum (Interactive, online web forums for sharing ideas about common interests or projects)
- Q&A (A space for experts to respond to users' questions)
- Collaborative Inbox (A communal inbox with message assignment functions. Perfect for assigning tasks to group members or managing constituents)
As of Summer 2017, Groups is being leveraged as a replacement product to AppState's former Listserv system
