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 pressing 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 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.
