Adding Email Contacts

You are here:

Before you can send your email campaign, you'll need to add your contacts to Mail Designer 365 Delivery Hub. You can add contacts manually via copy & paste or using a CSV file (e.g. when exporting contacts from another service.)

To get started, log into your my.maildesigner365 account and go to Contacts.

Manual import

Under Paste email addresses, paste your list of email addresses into the space provided, ensuring that each address is separated with a comma (,) or line break:

Just enter a value (e.g. "Origin") into the placeholder field and click on Create new:

Then, enter a sub value (e.g. Website") and click on Create:

During this step, you can also assign attributes to your contacts as described in this guide.
