How do I give my mailing list to an outside service?

First you need to decide if you want to give your mailing service the entire file or target certain buyers.  If you want to target your mailing you will use the selection process in the Mail System – File Menu – Set-up a Mailing.  You can then export the resulting select file or bypass the selection process and export the entire main file.  Go to Reports – Export a Mail File.  This will create an exportable file in a format your mailing service can use.  You can select which data fields you want to include in the file, i.e. name, address, city, state, and zip. The file that will be created is called export.dat in the aucmail folder either on your local C: drive or the network drive (usually F:). You can look at the file in Excel before sending it to your mailing service. You may want to re-save it as a comma delimited .csv format or an Excel .xls format if they require it.
