Schedule the Message Delivery

If you do not want to send the message immediately to the email delivery queue, or if you intended to use two-stage delivery, you can schedule the date and time that the message should go to the queue to be sent out to the appropriate recipients. You can schedule just a future time as well.

Sending the message to the email delivery queue places it in the queue where it will be sent at the next available interval according to the rules and tasks for emailing on your site. The actual send process also depends on the contention for resources on your site.

On the Configure Message Delivery page, if the Schedule status message contains a date and time (or time) that must be adjusted.

Schedule the email delivery date:

You can display the Configure Message Delivery page in several different ways:

• From the Approve Message page (in the Create Message flow), click Set up Delivery.

• From the Message List, click Set Up Delivery from the Actions column of the appropriate message.

• From the Related Actions on the Campaign Summary or Message List page, click Send a message and then click Set up Delivery from the Actions column of the appropriate message.

1. From Related Actions, click Schedule. The Select Date and Time page displays.

2. Use the date and time drop-downs to select the appropriate date and time and then click Finish. The Configure Message Delivery page displays again.
