A mail room list is a saved collection of constituents that you can use as the recipient group for batch email sends in Argenta. Instead of sending an email to one person at a time, you select a mail room list and Argenta sends the email to every eligible person on that list.

Key characteristics:

  • Mail room lists are managed in the Mail Room section of Argenta
  • Each list contains constituents who meet certain criteria or were manually added
  • When you send to a mail room list, Argenta automatically skips recipients who have opted out of email or do not have an email address on file
  • You can schedule batch sends for a specific date and time, or send immediately

How mail room lists relate to merge tags:

When you send an email template with merge tags to a mail room list, Argenta processes each recipient individually. Every person on the list receives a uniquely personalized email with their own data replacing the merge tag placeholders. For example, if your template contains [FirstName] and your list has 200 people, all 200 emails will have the correct first name for each recipient.

Where to find it: Navigate to the Mail Room from the main menu to create and manage your mail room lists. To send an email to a list, open your email template in the Email Template Workspace and click Send To A Mail Room List.
