Part 13: Obtaining a list of your members

You may receive a list of all of your list members by sending an email command to your server from your list admin email address. The server will respond by emailing you back a list of your names.

1. To get a text copy of your membership, you will need to send a message to the server on which your list resides (e.g., lyris@comet.sparklist.com, lyris@yourvirtualdomain.com, etc.).

2. Leave the subject line blank.

3. In the body of your message have the first line read:

   login yourpassword

   Replace yourpassword with the password you use to log into your list. (For example, if your password is "oscar", the first line would read login oscar.)

4. In the body of your message, have the second line read:

   review yourlistname names

   Replace yourlistname with the name of your list. (For example, if your list’s name is "newsletter", the second line would be review newsletter names.)

5. Send your email message.

View more options on retrieving members of other types (e.g. unsubscribed or held members).
