Send emails based on local times

Send emails based on local times

Can you add a feature that would allow us send email based on receivers' local time zones under the "schedule tab" without creating programs?

This is really exciting. I do not have this functionality live on my instance yet, is it accurate that it only applies to Email Send programs and we can not utilize this for engagement programs?

I believe the Fall release happens later this months.  Just not sure if everyone will have it or if it will be deployed gradually like some of their other enhancements have been in the past.

I hope it applies to ANY type of program that sends emails - not just Email Send programs (especially since Email Send programs can't be used in EPs). Very rarely do we use the Email Send program.

Unfortunately, the release of this feature will only apply to Email Send programs and Engagement Programs with individual emails (not child/default programs that contain basic "email send" smart campaigns).  We build our engagement programs that include child "default " programs, where this feature will not be supported.

I just hope theres some more control over it. I dont want to have to schedule 24 hours ahead because of a Person on the other end of the world.

This is already implemented, Dina.  (At least as far as this Idea is concerned; as Dan points out, it needs expanded functionality to be useful to more people.)
