Help with sending mail to large group

[regenerate]

Hi All,

I'm quite new to sugarcrm. I used it with small groups but now I need some help with mass mailing a large group (around 30.000) of users. I finaly got them imported trhough csv (took me some hours), but now I'm stuck (and yes i've read te documentation).

I guess groep should be imported as contacts or as targets. For my purpose there is no difference I guess. I'f I'm correct, I need to start a campaign and create a target list. But how do I ad 30.000 users to that list? I only see a way to put 20 contacts or targets onto the created target list at once. Since I don't suppose doing that 1500 times in a row is the easiest way of doing this....?

Thanks in advance!

Hi, regenerate

If you import Prospects you can insert all imported to some ProspectList after importing process.

But for Contacts it does not exist.

But Lampada Global Services developed a patch which enable sending all ListView result to some ProspectList.
This way you can import all your Contacts (sharing some specific information), search them through Advanced Search and save all of them into some ProspectList,

Hi, André

Where can I do such a thing? I can't find 'prospects' anywhere, also can't find it in the user guide (i'm using the community edition if that makes any difference...)
