MARGED LIST

[Dima108]

Hello!
When I create a campaign on several lists, the system combines them into the MARGED LIST. These lists then accumulate and the statistics turn into a garbage dump. It also seems to overload the database. These lists are copied, right? When you try to remove the MARGED list, the script also deletes all campaigns associated with it. How do I delete merged lists without deleting campaigns?

Yeah, this is on side effect of not thinking mailwizz from the start with the ability to send to multiple lists at once, so we use a cheap trick to do it now. You could alternatively try and segment your lists, maybe it works better than having multiple merged lists, you'll have to try.

You can't for now.

OMG!
This problem somehow will be solved with time?
Can I remove these lists directly from MYSQL? How to find them in the database?

I did not quite understand this phrase

Even if you remove the from mysql, they will remove campaigns too.

OK.
If I still delete these lists after a while, сan subscribers follow links that were generated by tracking domain?

Most likely no.

You should see how PHPList handles it. Back when I used to use PHPList it was very simple to add additional lists to the mailings. They would just include all additional emails not in the main list. I don't recall how the unsubscribes were tracked.

In fact now that I think about it, Mailster supports it as well with a similar way. It is standard on most mailing softwares to be able to send to multiple lists, and it automatically doesnt send to duplicates.
