How to bulk import a large number of users in to a MailEnable list
SUMMARY
How to bulk import users into a list.
DETAIL
MailEnable allows you to import users from a tab or comma delimited file.
From within the MailEnable Administration program, right click on the list and select All Tasks >Import Members. A wizard will then guide the import procedure.
Alternatively,
it is possible to manually import members into the raw text files.
MailEnable stores the members of a list in a TAB delimited Text
File.
This file is named: C:\Program Files\Mail Enable\Config\Postoffices\[POSTOFFICE]\Lists\[LISTNAME].TAB
This is a text file so you can simply paste entries into the
list. Please note that the format of this file is [SMTP:Member Address].
Example:
[SMTP:Member1@domain]
[SMTP:Member2@domain]
[SMTP:Member3@domain]
[SMTP:Member2@domain]
[SMTP:Member3@domain]
It
is simple to manage these lists using Microsoft Excel to dump out
the file formatted as above i.e. saving as
tab delimited or comma delimited.
There is a sample Excel template available at http://www.mailenable.com/utilities/LISTMEMXLS.xls.
Format the row in Excel and
just paste the contents of the B column into the tab file.
