Editing mailing lists

When you add a recipient manually, you are initially only prompted to complete the details for First Name, Surname and Email address. There are, however, several other fields that you can complete for a recipient in a mailing list and these are only evident, in an additional pane, once a recipient has been added. In this manner, you are able to edit the details of a recipient and include additional information such as Address and Job Title. Editing a recipient in a mailing list may also be required for instance if any of the details, such as email address, needs alteration.
