Remover
Use
the Remover to
extract from one list file the items included into one or more
remove-list files (e. g. to exclude some e-mail addresses,
stored in separate files, from your basic mailing list).
Sometimes you need to remove e-mail addresses from your
mailing lists. The most common example is when you receive
messages from some people asking you not to mail the any more.
To satisfy their request, prepare a remove-list containing
their addresses (e. g. exporting their messages into one file
and run this file through the Cleaner with the
option “Only strip out addresses preceded by” and the value
“From:”). You can use several remove-files at a time. There’s
no need to merge them as the Remover can manage
multiple remove-files.
Attention!
Please make sure that your
basic e-mail addresses list and all the remove-files are
standard ListMotor lists (one item per line, sorted, no
duplicates). The easiest way to avoid problems is to run the
files through the Cleaner.
Now
you can use the Remover to solve your
problem.
- Specify your basic e-mails list as the input
file
- Specify one or more remove-files
- Specify the output file
- If necessary, check the option “Also remove addresses
in these domains” and indicate the top-level domains (e. g.
com, info, etc.).
All the addresses belonging to the specified domains
will be removed from the list.
Please note that the Remover works with
lists of certain single e-mail addresses (the only
generalization is the possibility to indicate manually some
e-mails). If you need to remove from your list whole types of e-mail
addresses, use the Filterer.
Processing result
In
the output file you will have the list containing the e-mail
addresses from your input list with the exception of the ones
from your remove-list(s) and those which entered the specified
domains if you used the option “Also remove addresses in these
domains”.
Your
input and remove files will remain the same.
