Learn how to create and manage contact lists in Indie Email

Updated over 2 weeks ago

A contact list will contain the name and email address of each contact, as well as any other information you feel is relevant.

Why this is important

By building a good, detailed contact list, you will not only be able to distribute campaigns easily and safely, but you will also be able to keep track of the statistics they provide in comparison to your other lists.

How to create a new list

1. In the dashboard, select the Contacts tab.

2. Click on the ⚙️icon on the right side of the page, next to contacts

3. In the option to choose a list to manage, click the small arrow to display a drop down menu.

4. In this menu, select New list.

5. Click on it and then, you will be able to name your list.

6. After naming your new list, click on Save.

7. At the Settings tab, specify the Default Sender, from which address this list should be sent by default.

8. You can also change the Default language for the list, set a double opt-in or preview the Subscription confirmation and Unsubscribe pages

Duplicate emails

Please note that multiple lists can have the same email address. It is important to note that a contact who is active in, for example, five lists will count as five contacts, within your total of contacts, we advise using just one list: this helps you keep all the information from your contacts (history, campaign received, click, etc.) in one place, so that you do not have to pay multiple rates. Segmentation in your list can help avoid this.
