Account verses List Settings

In the MailUp Admin Panel, you have two settings levels: The Account level, and the List level. A List is a "sub-account" in your Account, and all lists are affected by your Account subscription (speed of delivery, dedicated IP, no logo, etc.) The only thing that lists share by default are the Recipient Field categories at the Account Level. For example, if there is a custom field that holds a recipient's ZIP code, that field category is shared across all lists.Templates can also be shared across Lists.

You can create multiple lists, for all kinds of purposes. All lists are independent from each other, except for the data that is saved in the custom fields that make up the recipients database. 

Therefore, the first thing we suggest you do is to first set up your Recipient Field categories (40 are customizable!) (This will be a crucial step once you're ready to import your recipient data!)

A multi-list environment

MailUp is a multi-list environment, each list is completely independent of the other, each with it's separate import of recipients and subscription status, message settings, user settings and statistics. Therefore, most of MailUp's features are handled at the List level, and the user must always first choose the List to operate in.  

 

Note
titleDefault List

You will be operating If you choose to only have one List, you operate your account in one default List named "News". This list is not visible on the admin panel until you choose to create additional Lists. Therefore, if you do not want additional Lists in MailUp, your first import, messages, etc. will be handled via this default List.

You can create multiple lists, for all kinds of purposes. Remember, each list is independent of the other.

Some examples of using multiple lists in MailUp:

Configuring list settings

After you've configured your Account Settings as indicated above, you will need to set up  your List settings. Since all activity is handled at the List level, you must first configure your settings for each list you create (even for the default List!). Once in the MailUp admin panel, select Settings > Account Settings > Lists.
