Creating Email List and Scanning Emails
To create a new list, press [New Email List] button on the top toolbar.
Give it a name (doesn't have to match the group name), and then select the group, using type ahead to filter and find the group you want (always start with a smaller group). You will also be given options to further customize the settings.
Once you save the list, return to this page and press the Run Process icon on the left hand of the list name you have created.
You will be directed to the processing page. The page prompts you one more time due to cost implication that would occur once the process has started.
As it's processing, you can see the results. Most will display skipping, unless your dynamic group filters out contacts with data in the email status field. It will tell you when the process is done. The nice thing is at this point the Master database is updated for all users to enjoy immediately, or immediately after a sync.
In case the process is interrupted, you could always return to this page and click the [Start] button again to continue from where it was left.
