Hello,

I created an email list based on company contacts, and it doesn’t show up in the “recipients” drop down menu when I am trying to use it to send out a marketing mail.

What am i doing wrong?

Can someone help please?

Thanks!

Hi @RBarsoum

Email recipients can only see contact lists specifically. It sounds like you may have created a company list, which will not work.

Can you confirm if this is the case? If so, you will need to create the contact list instead.

Hope this helps.
