Uploading your email addresses and other member information is easy. There are many fields of information you can associate with a subscriber including 10 custom fields. This will help you track and personalize messages as well as create sub-lists based on field criteria.
For example; you may want to just mail to members in a single state. You can go to the subscriber area, choose "SEARCH AND MANAGE SUBSCRIBER LIST", then create a new list based on the State field.

Import Options:
The import procedure automatically prevents duplicate records from being added to your list and updates the information associated with any pre-existing subscriber record with the imported values. There are two ways the records you are importing can be synchronized with the subscriber list in your account. You can:
Add new subscribers, update existing subscribers.
Add new subscribers, update existing subscribers, remove subscribers not in the imported file.
You can also reactivate subscribers in import file who previously opted out.
Note: This is an advanced feature that can override the opt-out request of your subscribers. Use only to obtain an exact synchronization of your subscriber database and your account without using the opt-out protection feature.
You'll then choose what list you want to import these subscribers to and add a source feild if you'd like.
Once you are statisfied, click "Continue".
You'll get a screen that says your upload is being processes. This can take from a few seconds for a list of 50 or less, or up to 20-30 minutes for lists of 5,000 or more.
