The previous video gave an overview of the Member’s Area for Single List account holders. In this video, we’ll look at Multiple List accounts.

Once you’re logged in, you can access Multiple List accounts from the accounts menu at the top right of the page. Moving to the left hand side of the page, you can see the main menu. Note that this is broken into two sections: General and Lists.

The address book stores all the members of all your lists. You can also add and approve members, and download your members’ details here.

Individual lists are managed by selecting 'manage lists’. You can create new lists, delete lists, and move or copy members from one list to another. Members of specific lists are managed by selecting 'list members’. You can add members from your address book to individual lists. Members who have completed email confirmation are shown in green, while those who are yet to confirm are shown in red.

In the list settings section, you can manage settings for each individual list. You can add moderators, manage permissions and restrictions, customise list emails, and choose the details that list members see when they view their emails.

The archives enables full management of email archives for each of your lists. You can enable or disable archives and offer protected viewing, which allows only selected users to view archives.

The general settings section is used to manage your multiple list account. You can customise your landing pages, such as sign up pages and email archives.

You can manage subscription settings. For example, you can enable or disable new subscriptions, and select whether new subscriptions require approval. You can customise your confirmation email and write a message that users receive when they confirm their email address. You can add your own domain so that it replaces Simplelists.com. This enables you to brand the entire system as your own.

Aliases can be used to forward emails to different email addresses. You can forward to normal email addresses, as well as to other lists.

The approval section shows emails that area waiting to be approved. When you grant approval, the emails will be sent.

The bounces section shows email addresses that emails have bounced back from, such as email addresses that don’t exist.

That’s the overview of the Multiple List account holders Members’ Area - Simple!
