Test content or template

This page shows you what your Content or Template is going to look like.

The table below shows the test Content or Template page settings in detail:

Note

Mail merge tags (text with %% around them) are not merged. To see what a message sent to an actual member is going to look like, create and test a mailing

Field Name Description
Header This is the SMTP header of the content
Text Message This is the text portion of your content, if any. The actual message as received by list members might look different, depending on their email client settings.
HTML Message

The HTML portion of your content, if any. The actual message as received by list members might look different, depending on their email client settings

In the HTML message, clickthrough links shall be rewritten so that you can test their destination. For example, a link that you created that looks like this:

%%track "http://www.lyris.com"%%

This is going to be rewritten to look like this:

/cttest?url=http://www.lyris.com

Normally, you do not see that they have been rewritten because they are disguised in the HTML as images or clickthrough text.
