2.6.4 Exporting Distribution Lists to a Text File
To export the recipients in a distribution list to a local
file, select a distribution list and click the Export
List button.
A new window indicating that the distribution list is
being generated will be displayed. There is the
possibility to cancel the export by clicking the Cancel
button.
After the export files have been generated, there are
two options: Download this file or close popup
window. Click Download if you want to save the
exported distribution list to your computer.
A standard browser file download dialog will be
displayed that allows saving the text file to the
computer. See the section on importing distribution
lists for details on the file format.
The system administrator can configure whether the
exported file is TSV (tab separated) or CSV (comma
separated).
The file is always exported in the UTF-16LE (little-
endian) format with BOM.
The system administrator can configure which
addresses from each recipient entry will be exported.
Typically, only the first active address of a recipient
will be exported.
The system administrator can also configure which
fields from each recipient will be exported:
The standard fields: Attention, Service,
Number, RecipientID
Extended fields: All of the fields listed above.
If a user exports a list that contains other lists, the
recipients from all of the included lists will be
exported to the file; however, the names of the
included lists will not be exported.
If a user selects multiple distribution lists and then
clicks the Export List button, the lists will be
delivered to the browser in a single .ZIP file.
However, the exporting of multiple lists only supports
lists where the name contains letters without umlauts
or accents.

Note:
The “Full Name” of a recipient will be exported to the “Attention” field in the text file.
To avoid automatic opening of the file, be sure to set your web browser‟s options appropriately.
The export of multiple files to a ZIP file does not support characters with umlauts or accents such as
Ц,Ь,Д.
