Viewing History and Error Reports


The History and Errors modes provide access to other data related to your mailing list.

The following sections are available:

Processing Errors

When messages with invalidly formatted or blocked addresses or that specify an invalid group are encountered while processing they are added to your Errors list. You can review and reprocess the errors if required.

If you are using POP retrieval, messages on the mail server that are not mailing list messages will also be added (if you have specified this option).
 

Pending Double Opt-In

If you have enabled either of the Double Opt-In or Opt-Out options, the "Double Opt-In" tab displays any subscribe or unsubscribe requests that are awaiting confirmation.  You can manually process or send out a reminder to the listed items.

Note: This tab is hidden if you are not using the Opt-In or Opt-Out options
 

Removed Members

This tab lists all addresses that have been removed from your database (either due to an unsubscribe request, exceeding your undeliverable message limit or being deleted by the Administrator).

You can instruct MailList King to block the re-addition of any addresses listed in this table (under File > Options, Blocking).

You can also reprocess or reverse the removal of any listed addresses.
 

Importing Removed/Undeliverable Addresses

If you have a list of addresses (or entire domains in the format *@blockedcompany.com) you want to block you can import/paste it by clicking the "Import" button.
 

Sent Mail History

This tab lists all messages that have been sent by the administrator or by members (if member sending is enabled) to the mailing list.  You can view and resend any of the listed messages.
