Content Details

You can send a test email to check the contents of a broadcast email before sending it to all recipients. It is recommended to send the test email to different email providers (such as Gmail, Hotmail, Yahoo) because filters and spam settings vary. When reviewing the test email, make sure all images display correctly and all links work.
