Re: Does sending emails in smaller batches improve deliverability?

Hi Bentacular,

Did you ever check your log/results file? I just set it up for a smartlist of 20 emails and in steps of 10%. The first 2 hours it went okay.Then it started repeating sending the email to the same people in the second sending. Fortunately I tested it on a sample size for 20 people so I only annoyed 2 people but for whatever reason, it didn't work for me.

Any insights why it started sending emails to people already sent to?

TIA

It has never happened to me before. In the random sample field did you place a "%"? I just input a number (i.e. 10% = 10, 20% = 20). I always make sure that all the numbers in the random sample equal to 100.
 Try the email route and see if it does the same thing.

Would the following flow work so that you do not send the email to the same person multiple times as Patrick had indicated?

If random sample is 25  send [01 EMAIL]. Default Choice: do nothing
wait one hour
If was sent email is [01 EMAIL] - Do nothing
If random sample is 25  send [01 EMAIL]. Default Choice: do nothing

wait one hour
If was sent email is [01 EMAIL] - Do nothing
If random sample is 25  send [01 EMAIL]. Default Choice: do nothing

wait one hour
If was sent email is [01 EMAIL] - Do nothing

If random sample is 25  send [01 EMAIL]. Default Choice: do nothing
