- Click the Log In button.
- At the top of the window, click the List Management button.
- Complete the following directions depending on whether you want to delete single subscribers or delete subscribers in bulk.
- To delete single subscribers:
- From the menu, select List Dashboard.
- Scroll to the bottom of the window, to the right of your list name, under the Subscribers column, click the [View] link.

- To remove subscribers using an imported text file:
Note: The imported text file should be in plain text (.txt) format. You should list each subscriber's e-mail address, first name, and last name on a separate line.
