Abstract

A system and method for establishing an on-line discussion group provides a mechanism for emailing the on-line discussion group to one or more participants. According to the present invention, an on-line discussion group may be customized by a user. Once a server creates the on-line-discussion group in accordance with parameters specified by the user or otherwise, the server emails the newly created on-line discussion group to the user. After receiving the email, the user may forward the email with the on-line discussion group included therein to other users to participate in the on-line discussion group. Recipients may participate in the on-line discussion group by 'clicking on' the email. Preferably, the active on-line discussion group operates within a message portion of the email upon opening the email. The on-line discussion group may include various types of communication discussion groups including, for example, an on-line chat room, an on-line message board, a teleconference, a video teleconference, an auction, etc.
