Populating member name in Mass Subscription
by Pantejo, Barbara FTL Feb. 28, 2005

Feb. 28, 2005

I noticed in the Member Management->Membership List section that a member name can be associated with the member address. Can I populate the member name using an uploaded file in the Mass Subscription? In other words, in the upload file can I place the member name after the member address, with a space between the email addres and the name?

When other's reply to their email, it continues to grow (I already filter on size, but I'd rather be more specific to just emails that contain the digest). I'd like to prevent users from … [View More]
