Create your first list
Create your first list, add contacts from a CSV file or by hand, and check the import result.
Use a list to group contacts who have agreed to receive your emails. Give your first list a recognisable name, such as Newsletter or Customers.
Create the list
Open Contacts > Lists
Click New list.Name your list
Enter a name and click Save, then open the list.
Add contacts
If you have a CSV file:
Open List actions > Import contacts
This list is already selected as the destination. Add your CSV file in the Upload step.Match the columns
In Mapping, match the email, name and other columns in your file to the corresponding MailGraf fields.Confirm permission
Complete the Permission step and click Start import.
To add one person, click Add contact in your list. Enter their email address and details, tick the permission box and save.
The permission box records your declaration that you already have the recipient's consent. Adding an address to a list does not obtain consent from that person.
Check the import result
Open Imports to check the import result and Contacts to see the people added. List health shows sendable, blocked and inactive contacts.
Before your first send, see Verify and clean your email list. Once your list is ready, create your first campaign.
Frequently asked questions
Can a contact be in more than one list?
Yes. Add the contact to as many lists as you like. A campaign sent to several lists reaches each person once.
What happens if I delete a list?
The contacts are kept; only the list goes away.
