Add Subscribers to Mailing Lists

Mailing lists are a good way to send a message or series of messages to many people at once. For example, many companies use mailing lists to email newsletters, promotional offers, or information about product updates to subscribers.

There are two primary methods for adding subscribers to a mailing list: (1) If there are only a few emails to add to the mailing list, domain administrators or moderators can manually add subscribers. (2) If there are a large number of emails to add to a mailing list, domain administrators or moderators can upload a .CSV file that lists all of the subscriber emails.
