Assuming that you are on some flavor of UNIX machine and that you do have SSH/telnet access to your mail files: Navigate to the directory containing your dist file, (the mailing list directory), 'cat' on dist file and dump in a 'cut and paste' of the email address list. Must be only one address per line and in 'normal' address format, that is no aliases, just the raw address. Example (~$ = prompt): ~$ cp dist dist.orig <Enter> ~$ cat > dist [paste] <Enter> <Ctrl-d> If the list came from a MS editor, it might be a good idea to remove control from end of lines,etc. Example, run from prompt on command line (~$): ~$ cp dist dist.b4cleanup ~$ cat dist | grep -v ^M > dist Should give you a clean copy of dist file, although, you probably won't need this as cut and paste will probably not bring over end of line junk.

I host where I have my web site uses Smartlist. I have set up a news letter for my church and need to know how I can add a list of email address to the mailing list without having to enter each address manually from the subscribe page.
Is there a way of doing this?
Thank you,
