Invitation Emails

I attempted to use the import function for email invitations to an event and it has an import error every time ...
I used comma delimited lists in both txt and csv extensions and it does not work. What is the proper format for the import to work. I am not using Outlook and I have to create an export file, but have most options available.

Also i then copied and pasted the listing of the emails and it worked fine except even after two hours i did not receive an invitation. I then sent three test emails to myself to various accounts and have waited 2 more hours and have not received any invitation ? what is the expected turn around time that the invitations should be sent ???? I hope it is before my event !

There appears to be a bug with it, so you may wish to submit a report on the following link.

lol, ya hopefully it arrives before the event. Have you checked your spam folders to be sure it didn't end up in there?

Since I send out to 232 doing anything manually is not going to happen .... that is why I cut and pasted the list.

Yes, I check spam filters ... it simply does not go out timely ... I did after 7 hours receive 2 of my 4 test messages, but i have no idea whether any of the 232 got the invitation ? [It was an oversight on my part that my email was not in that list of 232, normally I always include myself too, so I am sure it worked]
