Deleting Members

Deleting members unsubscribes them from the list. Unsubscribed members are removed, and do not receive messages posted to the listserv.

Follow the instructions below to delete members from your list:

1. From the Configuration Categories list at the top of the page, click on the Membership Management... link.
   
   
   
   
2. A sub-list of Membership Management... categories will open. The Membership List will be the default.
3. Click the Mass Removal link.
4. The Mass Removals section will open.
   
   
   

With the Mass Removals section open, there are two ways to delete members. Either of these methods will leave your listserv intact, but remove all or certain members:

• Enter each Address one at a time or en-mass
• Specify a File to Upload

Note: You can also contact the IT Help Desk to request a list membership purge. Your request will be forwarded to the appropriate IT personnel who will purge the entire membership for you. This will not change your list settings. Please provide the name of the list to purge with your request.

Enter Each Address

1. Scroll down to the Member Address text box.
2. Enter the addresses into the box with one address per line. They may be typed or copied from a spreadsheet.
3. Scroll to the bottom of the page and click the Submit Your Changes button.
   
   
   
   
4. The listserv will tell you which email addresses have been successfully unsubscribed.
   
   
   

Note: If you save your email addresses in a spreadsheet, you can easily use copy and paste to remove an entire list of members at a time. This is a useful technique for managing your list membership.

Specify a File to Upload

1. Scroll down to the ...or specify a file to upload: text box.
2. Click the Browse... button.
   
   
   
   
3. The Choose a File to Upload window will open.
4. Browse and open the address file to upload. The file must be in .txt format.
   
   
   
   
5. Scroll to the bottom of the page and click the Submit Your Changes button.
