Hi,

Confirmed.

There is a bug that the import facility in the current web interface does not properly parse full names.

At least the only way we have been able to recreate the problem is by having at least one entry that includes a full name.

We are working on a fix.

In the meantime, as I mentioned in regard to a related query, these groups can be manually edited/updated as text files.

They have a .TXT file extension and are located under the DLISTS folder.

Hi,

A quick follow-up...

We have a fix for this (and related performance problems involving groups).

The update can be downloaded at https://www.nowsms.com/download/nowsms20180711.zip

To fix a corrupt group, import the group again using the replace option.
