New/edit segment boundaries tab
When posting to a list or a segment, Aurea List Manager automatically adds some additional restrictions to the member selection query. These restrictions only allow sending of mail to normal members. However, there are times when you might want to send to all members of a list regardless of whether they are set to receive the message as sent, or perhaps you want to send the message to all members, including those who are held.
These types of postings are possible by modifying Pull only normal members, Pull only members receiving regular email and Pull only this list's members. In general, you should never need to modify these settings, and problems can occur if you modify these settings without understanding the consequences.
For example, you could end up sending to members who have unsubscribed from your list, or you could send to every member on the server inadvertently.
The table below explains the options available in the New/edit segment boundaries tab:
Field Name | Description |
---|---|
Pull only normal members |
By default, the segment pulls only normal members, not those who have unsubscribed from
the list, who are held due to bouncing too much mail, or who have not yet confirmed that they'd like to
receive mail from you. By selecting Warning By selecting |
Pull only members receiving regular email |
By default, the subset only sends to members who have selected to receive normal postings, not digests,
mimedigests, or who have set themselves not to receive mail at all. By selecting Warning By selecting |
Pull only this list's members |
By default, the subset selects only members from the list you are currently working in. If you want to send to recipients regardless of the list they are subscribed to, select Warning By selecting |
