You can manage mailing
lists by selecting "Mailing Lists" on the Navigation Menu. In the current
version of ControlPoint, Mailing Lists are really address books you can
manage for your convenience. You may use Mailing Lists to organize your
customers' email addresses into groupings specific to a purpose, then
use those groupings as recipients for messages you send within ControlPoint.
These groupings are only known to ControlPoint, they are not recognized
as email aliases that others can send to.
Please select "Mailing Lists" on the Navigation Menu, the main Mailing
Lists Screen allows gives you a quick summary of existing lists, as well
as the ability to add new ones, or manage existing lists.

not be accepted.
