Bulk Operations

You can add or remove subscribers using a .txt or .csv file. The file should be created with notepad or a similar plain text editor (not Word or Wordpad). The file should contain one entry per line in the following format.

username@domain.com fname lname
username2@domain.com fname2 lname2
….

The fname lname is optional.

LSoft has a guide for creating the bulk import file from an excel spreadsheet.

 

Once you have a subscriber file, click Bulk Operations.
