Removing addresses from On Hold status
June 06, 2009, 04:38:17 pm
I sent out a blast e-mail with bad settings and now have 1000s of e-mails listed as on hold that are valid.  Is there a bulk way to reverse this?

I did it by going into the database an taking all of the contacts off of on hold status.

What table, what query... etc.

Can you elaborate a bit?

The table is civicrm_email, the column is on_hold, hence the query should be something like

Code: [Select]
UPDATE civicrm_email SET on_hold = 0;

Dzieki, Piotr

This is exactly what I used it worked perfectly. For the other noobs out there : open up your PhpMyAdmin, click on the database that holds your civicrm data. Open the table civicrm_email and run the above SQL statement.
