Ok, I hit a snag.
I used the import.LetterRip command, using an imported test list from
letterrip.
the list had 2 addresses, one with a name and address and the next with
only an address
It only imported the one with a name (first one).
any ideas on how I can fix this- I've got some lists with 10's of
thousands of subscribers, not all woth names...
Thanks again!
Jim
