Keep track of what your Mailing List Groups are called and who is in them

(Last updated on: September 23, 2015)

Mailing List Groups are a valuable feature in Wintix and you need to treat them as such by periodically running reports to make sure you remember what they are called and who are the members of each group.

This is important because if something should happen to your initialization files, the names could revert back to the default names of Group 1, Group 2, etc.
