Overview of NA60

The Mailing List Recipients program allows you to send mailings in specific quantities to recipients. It associates constituents to one or more mailing lists. To create a new mailing list code, you must first go to the Mailing List Codes area and add the new code there. Once the code has been added, you can add recipients to the mailing list.


  • From the DDI Connect main menu, double-click Name/Address System
  • Double-click Mailing List Recipients. You will see this screen:
