Lists: These refer to your subscribers. Here you will be able to create and change setting for your lists. In MailChimp you can have as many lists as you want. For free MailChimp accounts, the subscribers limit is set to 2000 email subscribers.
Reports: How are your campaigns performing? Are you getting new subscribers? Are people unsubscribing? Are links being clicked once you send your emails? Does anyone even care about your emails ? Are they getting opened?
