Now that you have finished the Basic settings and created the first mailing list, it is important to create subscribers in your system for the next steps. Our suggestion is picking a few subscribers from your company in order to keep your real subscribers from beeing bothered by trials. First of all, you should add yourself as a subscriber using your own E-Mail address. Please make sure that this E-Mail address is provided in your personal user settings as well.
To create a new subscriber, please click on “Subscriber Management --> Create Subscriber”.
