Marketing: Email Marketing: Mailing Lists

Purpose

This document explains the process creating Mailing Lists in the Email Marketing app in Odoo 14. Mailing Lists are groups of contacts that can be used in email campaigns without the need to filter contacts every time you want to send it an email to a specified list of recipients. 

Process

To get started, navigate to the Email Marketing app. 


Mailing Lists

Displayed will be a kanban view of existing mailing lists. To create a new mailing list, click on CREATE.

Once finished, click CREATE.  

Going back to the kanban view, if you hover over a Mailing List tile, you will see three vertical dots that when clicked, give you the option to Edit the Mailing List. Also, note the small   icon, which will show you the contacts on any particular mailing list. See our documentation for more information on Mailing List Contacts. 



Once on the mailing list template, you will see a smart button that will lead you to the same information that the    icon on the overview showed, a list of all of the mailing list contacts associated with this mailing list.
