The CSV file and raw CSV import data methods of importing are only available to users who use PHP 4.3+. This is due to the fact that the enclosure parameter for the fgetcsv() function was not added until PHP 4.3.0. Users who need to import their lists are encouraged to open your CSV file in Microsoft Excel or OpenOffice’s Calc and save their file as a .xls to import into ListMessenger.
