Field Name Description

List Settings

Your lists are created with appropriate settings for the kind of list you selected. If you want to fine tune your list and adjust the settings, you can do that here.

Web Forms

Web Forms is where Subscribe forms, Unsubscribe forms, Member profile forms, and Referral forms are created and edited. These allow users to join lists, update their profiles, and refer their friends.

Automated Messages

Automated messages include document content and document associations, which are email messages which are sent out in response to subscriber actions, such as joining a list, confirming their membership, writing to an autoresponder address. These documents typically have information about your list, your organization, etc. In order to have these documents sent out automatically, you must create them first in Utilities > Automated Messages > Document Associations.

Automated messages also includes autoresponders, which are email addresses which reply with a specified document. If you are sending announcements or one-way mailings, It's useful to put an autoresponder in the From: field of your message with instructions on how to unsubscribe. Match phrases allow you to automate actions when a specific text string is seen in an incoming email. They edit or reject messages with certain text in them according to your rules.
