Many customers of SimpleMail initially used Microsoft Outlook as their email solution until their contact list size outgrew Outlook. One of the first steps before moving to SimpleMail is getting the contacts out of Outlook. Here’s how you can export your contacts as a comma separated value (CSV) file which you can then import into SimpleMail.

Export Outlook Contacts

1) First launch Microsoft Outlook. Click File from the menu bar and choose Import and Export. The Import and Export Wizard (below) appears. Select Export to a file and click Next.

2) Select Comma Separated Values (Windows) then click the Next button.

3) If Outlook asks you to install a translator feature, click Yes.

4) Select the folder your Contacts are stored in and click Next.

5) The Save Exported File As window appears. Click Browse.

Select the Desktop as the destination. Give your exported contacts a file name like ‘contacts’. Click OK.

6) Click on the Finish button and allow the process to complete.

The exported file will now be saved onto your Desktop.

Import Contacts Into SimpleMail

You can now import the contacts into SimpleMail under the Manage Subscribers tab. Here’s a video of adding subscribers into SimpleMail.

Here’s looking forward to your exciting email newsletters!
