What is the difference between a hard bounce and a soft bounce?
| A
hard bounce is an email address that no longer exists. Those emails get
removed from your list. A soft bounce is something like an
out-of-office reply, or a full mailbox. Those emails will not be
removed from your list. |
How do I add a new user?
| Go to Customer Center -> Create New User. At the next screen enter
the email address and first and last name. Then, for permissions, check
Administrator, and for Interface Profile, select Advanced. Then click
create, and a welcome email will be sent to the new user. |
How do I change the "From" and "Reply to" addresses?
| Go to Lists -> Management -> View Lists, and select a list. At the next
page, you get the option for the From address and Reply To addresses.
Make sure you get the formatting absolutely perfect (there is an
example), or you'll get some bizarre results in the "from" field when
you send. |

What Counts is telling me "Unable to Update User Record". Why am I getting this error?
| This error often means that a record already exists for the new email address you are trying to change TO.
Use Search for Subscribers to see if the address you're trying to change TO already exists.
If it does, you can delete either record and then update the remaining record with the correct settings.
