Get Organized with Drag and Drop Lists

Back in November, I explained how to keep mailing assets organized using Campaign Smart Lists in Message Studio. However, I’ve since been asked if there’s another easy way to keep things organized for customers who don’t happen to use the campaign functionality.

The good news is that as an extremely flexbile application, Message Studio also allows you to organize your assets by simply creating a List and manually adding assets according to your own organization requirements.

A StrongMail List is a lot like a traditional folder, but with the added benefit of allowing an asset to be referenced in multiple Lists without creating additional copies of the asset. So, if you want a particular asset to be included in several different Lists, you can go right ahead and add it with no impact on performance.

Creating Lists in Message Studio can be accomplished via these three simple steps:


  • From the left-hand navigation menu, click on a menu option (e.g. Standard) under Mailings and select the Add button at the bottom of the menu. Alternatively, you can simply right-click on the Standard Mailings menu node and select Add from the drop down menu.

  • Give your List a name that makes sense for the type of assets you will be adding to it.

  • Now that your List is created, you can simply drag and drop assets from the List screens right into the List. Right-clicking the asset will also allow you to add it to a List.
