Creating an Email Template / Email Tags

• Creating a new email with our default template
• Or "repeat/copy" from a previously sent email, using it as your template for each new bulk email

You cannot modify the default template, however copying an existing newsletter works well and often saves much re-entry.

Personalising your Templates

You can include the following fields in your email content

With the bulk emailer unsubscribe links will be taken care of for you in the footer of your email.

 

	BULK EMAILER	EMAIL AUTO RESPONDERS
Their first name (first name retrieved from the full NAME member record)	[FIRSTNAME]
Their name (complete name retreived from the NAME member record)	[NAME]	[mbr_name]
Their expiry date if any exists	[EXPIRY]
Their password	[PASSWORD]	[PASSWORD]
Members reference number if any exists	[REFERENCE]
A special link that allows customers to confirm their email address validity (double optin)	[CONFIRMLINK]	[CONFIRMLINK]
