Sending a Proof of an Automatic Newsletter

You can send proofs of an automatic newsletter either before or as part of the process of sending the final newsletter. To ensure that you have time to review the proof that is sent just prior to the final newsletter, you can specify a delay between sending the proof and sending the final newsletter.

Tip: If you need to delay sending an automatic newsletter longer than the delay you specified when creating the newsletter, you can send it manually.

Sending proofs before sending the final automatic newsletter

To send a proof of the newsletter before the final version:

1. Navigate to the Newsletter page by clicking Newsletter.
2. Click New Newsletter.
3. Create the automatic newsletter.

   Note: You can enter e-mail addresses to send a proof to; the newsletter is sent to these recipients as part of the process of sending the final newsletter.
