How it Works
Once you set up a distribution list your members just email the group at emparrot.com. The system routes the message to all the other members. Any replies get routed back through the system. The only email address known to the group members is the distribution list address, not any of the member addresses.
By sending an email to your email group's address at emparrot.com the system ...
- Scans the email with Amazon Web Service's viruses and malicious content tools
- Ensures that the sender is a member of your group
- Removes dangerous and tracking content
- Removes the sender's email address and name from the email headers
- Adds a customizable pseudonymn to the message to identify the sender
- Distributes the email to the entire group, a subset, or an individual member as requested by the sender
- Processes replies similarly through the system creating open and safe group communications
Benefits
In today's world privacy is hard to maintain and your email address is a personal identifier for you. It is a key to your online identity, it is used for recovery of access, and is your front door for online communications. Handing it out should be done with care and those you give it to should show equal care. Unfortunately this works against having open communications within communities. EMail Parrot allows for group email exchanges without exposing users' email addresses broadly.
EMail Parrot is an email processing system ideal for groups without their own email systems and where members use personal email addresses for group communications. It acts as an email distribution system and also protects the sender's and recipients' email addresses. Your organization is responsible for protecting the email addresses of your members and EMail Parrot can make them safer.
Basic email is great for organization-to-member and member-to-organization communications. However, privacy considerations prevent simple email from being used for broad member-to-member communications as this would expose personal email addresses. Alternative methods, such as message boards and hosted email systems, are complex and have high administrative overhead.
Groups such as PTAs, neighborhood groups, volunteer organizations, scout troops, clubs, and extended families can benefit greatly from EMail Parrot. People want their personal email addresses protected and to remain private. This can be a barrier for high participation in typical email groups where email addresses are broadcast widely.
