You can also filter the recipient data to be exported by selecting a date. Three different kinds of date are available: the change date, the creation date and the change date on the mailing list. If only recipients who meet one or several of these criteria are to be exported, click on the data input field next to the entry concerned and select the start time (left-hand field) and end time (right-hand field).

If you export the the recipient's status on a mailing list, two columns will be added to the export file.

Userstate-Mailinglist-<ID>: The status of the recipient will be shown here (1 = Active, 2 = Bounced, 3 = Opt-Out by admin, 4 = Opt-Out by recipient, 5 = Waiting for user confirmation, 6 = Blacklisted, 7 = Pending).
Userstate-Mailinglist-<ID>-Timestamp: The date of the last change of the user status will be shown here.

The <ID> is the number of the mailing list shown in the mailing lists overview.

Export definitions may be saved for further use. This way, you need not specify all data (especially which columns are to be exported) each time you start an export process. Click on Save and enter a Name, possibly also a Description of the export, on the following page. Whenever you select Recipients and Export, all export definitions saved will be shown in an overview from now on.
