Send an email campaign
When you have finished creating your email campaign, you can choose to send it immediately or schedule to send it later. For automated email campaigns, you can choose to activate it immediately or schedule to activate it later.
To send or activate an email campaign:

Select the email campaign you want to send or activate and click the Delivery tab. Depending on the type of email campaign, the delivery options are a little different:

For automated email campaigns:
-
In the Delivery section, select either to:
-
Send or activate the message now
-
Schedule the message delivery or activation for a later date and enter the relevant date and time.
-
Schedule a recurring delivery to send the same message multiple times in the specified interval and enter the relevant details in the fields that appear
NoteIf you schedule to activate an automated message later, you can specify the start date only or you can specify a start and end date for when the automated message must be active.

If your email message contains personalized content, for example rule-based personalization or code-behind layout personalization, select the Personalization check box. This ensures that the personalized content in your email message is rendered correctly.

To send the message with multi-language support or to emulate the sending process, click the More link in the lower right corner of the Delivery options:

In the Multi-language section, select the Use preferred language check box to send the message with multi-language support.
