Navigation:  Build your permission based list > Import contacts from Outlook

 

 

From the “File” menu, select “Import contacts/Recipients”, then select “Import Outlook contacts”. The “Import Outlook contacts wizard” dialog box will be displayed.

 

 

Outlook must be your e-mail program by default. When you try to import, if Outlook isn’t your e-mail program by default, you will receive a message asking you to configure Outlook as your e-mail program by default. Then, you will have to restart the Mass Mailing News program so you can import the contacts from Outlook.

 

After finishing the import process of your contacts, you can delete the e-mails addresses that you don’t want in your list. Finally, click on the “Ok” button to add these contacts in your mailing list. It’s simple and quick!

 

Note*: It isn’t necessary for Outlook to be open during the contact importing process. If it is your e-mail program by default is enough.

 

Note**: If for any reason the program can not automatically import your contacts, follow these instructions.

 

You can export your Outlook Contacts as a Comma Separated Values (.csv) file and then import your contacts into Mass Mailing News.
