Warnung
Customers will only be included in the address list if the option Mailing allowed is ticked on the customer card. (see manual 'GENERAL - Customers)
If you want to, you can still exclude certain addresses from the mailing by clicking on Delete in the detailed page of the addresses to be excluded (double-click), or by deselecting the addresses to be excluded in the list.
E-mail control
If you are planning to send the mailing by e-mail, it is always useful to check if all called up addresses have a correct e-mail address.
In order to check the e-mail addresses of the called up addresses, you have to click on . The validity of all e-mail addresses found will in this way be checked.
In case e-mail control is used, the presence of an e-mail address as such will NOT be checked. If you want to avoid that customers without e-mail address are called up for the mailing, you have to activate the filter Only filled in e-mail addresses in the main window of the mailing (see New mailing). |
A correct e-mail address always consists of a user name, a @ sign and a domain name. An example of a correct e-mail address: peter.harrison@internet.uk.
Moreover, the following rules apply:
The following characters are allowed for user names: letters (A-Z), numbers (0-9), underscore (_), dash (-), point (.) and percentage (%).
After the user name only one @ sign is allowed.
For the domain name, the following characters are allowed: letters (A-Z), numbers (0-9),dash (-) and point (.)
The last part of the domain name (here .uk) always has to consist of at least 2 and maximally 4 letters (A-Z).
If no invalid e-mail addresses are found after the e-mail control, the message below will appear:
If invalid e-mail addresses have been found, however, the message below will appear:
After confirmation of the message, the addresses with invalid e-mail address will be marked in red in the list of addresses:
In this case you have to fill in a correct e-mail address on the customer cards in question and recreate the addresses for the mailing in question before restarting the e-mail control.
