 * For your reference for future development. I don’t know the pros and cons of 
   using the userID and Password of MailChimp instead of the API Key.
 * For all other plugins that I have tested so far, (more than 6 or 7 maybe…) all
   of them use API Key.

 * I just realised that your Plugin is using the API Key too….
 * I was sure I had entered the user and password in the setup, but after testing
   so many plugins I am not sure of anything anymore……
 * Apologies if your plugin doesn’t use the user name and password.

 * 🙂 no problem. I appreciate the feedback. All we need for this plugin is the 
   API Key.
