I have a bounce list and I understand that if named "remove" it can be used to delete bounces from the list.

Will it work on a Remote MLM list (SQL)?

Does this file need to be in a certain format to work (TXT) and if so what fields and in what order?

Do I just drag it over the remote list when opened in MaxBulk Mailer?

Thanks

Yes.

Yes. Process the remote list and upload it again.

It just has to be in plain text, there is no specific field order.

When you say process the list and upload it again.

I dropped the remove file over the open MLM file in MaxBulk.
It looked like it was trying to add the records because is told me about a lot of duplicates. It this proper behavior?

In terms of uploading it again. I am not sure how to do this. Do I have to export the list. Delete the current remote list then import the cleaned list? Or is there a more efficient way?

Thanks for all your help!

Did you rename your file 'delete.txt'?
To upload a list to MLM use the 'Recipients > Upload to MLM' menu.

Excellent. That all worked. I had named the file remove not delete. For some reason I thought either would work.

Final question. When using the remote list interface the buttons are not showing. See example. The MLMScripts folder is installed with in our website folder (http://www.preres.com)

Did you upload the 'pictures' folder into your 'lm' folder?

I think I need to give a bit more background. Maxbulk Mailr runs on my desktop. The remote list MLM is installed on our xserve.

I did not do a traditional install on the xserve. I dragged and dropped the MLMScripts folder into our website folder.

On the xserve: all the images are in the pictures fold which is in the MLMScripts folder. There is not a LM folder. There are several index.html and lm.php are in the MLMScripts folder not in a subfolder called lm.

On the Desktop: There is an lm folder with in the maxbulk mailer application folder under goodies and the image are again in a folder called pictures which is in the LM folder.

However the url is to the remote list server is:
http://www.preres.com/MLMscripts/lm/lm.php

On the server I tried placing the images in the MLMscripts folder (outside the pictures folder) but this did not resolve it.
On the desktop I tried placing the images in the LM folder and this did not seem to resolve it either.

MLM expects the pictures to be in a folder called 'pictures' at the same level as the lm.php file.
