Before getting started, be sure to:
What Are Mailing Lists?
In SendLayer, mailing lists are groups of email addresses that all have a single To Address you can use to send messages to all the recipients at the same time.
For example, if you created a mailing list for your sales team, you could just send an email to [email protected] to email everyone on the list simultaneously.
There are many use cases for mailing lists, including marketing campaigns, internal communication within your business, and more.
