I’ve selected multiple lists to send a newsletter to. Are contacts who are in multiple lists going to receive duplicate messages?

Your contacts won’t receive multiple newsletters if they are in multiple lists. The GetResponse system checks for duplicates and sends only one newsletter to recipients whose email address is in several lists.
