  Please advise…

  You cannot import an email list. Here are followers choose whether or not to follow our blogs. This platform is not one where you can conduct email marketing campaigns. For email marketing that you need to hire a web host and set up your own self hosted WordPress.ORG install. http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  What you do do on a free hosted WordPress.com blog follows.

  You can set up email subscriptions by using this guide > http://en.support.wordpress.com/widgets/follow-blog-widget/

  If you would like a follow button to appear on the bottom right hand corner of your site for those who do not have WordPress.com accounts see here >

  Find Friends Who Use WordPress > http://en.blog.wordpress.com/2012/05/01/find-friends/

  You can customize the contact form with multiple fields, change the email address where you’ll be notified, and mark feedbacks as spam from your dashboard. http://en.support.wordpress.com/contact-form/

  Note: As a spammer prevention you are limited to sending out 10 invitations at one point in time.
