Creating a newsletter type

When you first display the Newsletters section, the Newsletters pane will most likely be empty and you will need to create newsletter types to define the tree structure. Newsletter types contain their own mailing lists, newsletters and list of sent items.

  1. Click on the Newsletters icon  to display the Newsletters window
  2. Click on the Create tool  to display the Create options
  3. Click on the drop arrow  and select Add new type (if necessary)

    This is the default option, so it might already be displayed…
  4. Click on  to create a new newsletter type

    The new newsletter type is automatically furnished with a “Drafts” folder, a “Sent Items” folder and a “Mailing List”…


    The default name given to a new newsletter type is “New newsletter type” – the next step would logically be to change that to something more meaningful…
  5. Click on New newsletter type, in the Newsletters pane, to select the new type

    The text of the selected item is now bold and the details are displayed in the “Edit Content” pane - you will see the name of the newsletter type displayed here…
  6. Click quickly three times in the Newsletter Type field, in the Edit Content pane, to select the text

    You could also click and drag the mouse across the text to select it…
  7. Type in the preferred Newsletter Type name
  8. Click on  to save the changes

    The new name will now be displayed in the “Newsletters” pane…
