Importing Offline Email List without Autoresponder Trouble
Now I KNOW the problems of loading a few thousand "un opt-in" addresses in an autoresponder and spewing out emails. I wouldn't do that. But I don't to through away potential leads and they did give their email address to get information.
My thought
- load a few hundred at a time, only those collected in the last year
- send a one sentence note with a CLEAR statement
1) how we got their email
2) how to unsubscribe
3) direct to an opt-in page
Thoughts? Trying to avoid getting the account closed while cleaning the list and not burning the subscribers or autoresponder.
