List Name

Hello,

I created a mailing list some time ago, but I wish to change its List Name. This is the only thing I want to change, and I would like to keep the same properties and subscribers. Is it possible? Or I have to create a whole new mailing list with the new List Name?

Thanks!

Leo

I believe you need to create a new list and import your subscribers which should be easy if your list is not too large by cut and paste.

This link should have some tips:

The following should also help:
