View contacts in your mailing list

Use the mailing list view to manage contacts stored in the Email section. This helps you understand your audience and assess contact availability, engagement, and mailing list health before running an email campaign.

Let’s talk about how mailing lists work and how to manage contacts in them.

View contacts

To view contacts in your mailing list, go to Email > Mailing lists tab and select a mailing list.

It shows all subscribers and their information in the following fields:

Email address The contact’s email address and subscription status.
Phone The contact’s phone number, if provided.
Tags Labels used to categorize and filter contacts.
Rating

A star-based rating that reflects contact value or engagement.

Ratings don’t affect automated campaigns. They help you quickly compare contact activity.

Last activity The date and time of the most recent interaction.
Added on The date the contact was added to your mailing list.
Custom variables Other fields created in your mailing list, such as name, city, or customer type.

In the Email address column, a colored dot shows the contact status. Contacts can have the following statuses:

New (green dot) The contact was recently added and has not received any campaigns yet.
Active (green dot) The contact is confirmed and can receive campaigns.
Disabled (red dot)

The contact cannot receive campaigns due to system, user, or moderation restrictions.

Use Filter > By status to see why the contact was disabled.

Excluded The contact was excluded from campaigns.
