We received an email from a partner and want to use the same exact email and blast it out to our database. What is the best way to do that if possible.
Create a new email (any template - doesn't matter). Then under email actions, choose HTML Tools and Replace HTML. You can then copy/paste the HTML received from your partner and it should appear precisely as designed. It will warn you that you are "breaking" from the template and you cannot undo this action - which is obvious & correct. Hope it helps.
After doing this, you may also have to edit your pasted HTML to include tocken such as {{system.viewAsWebpageLink}} or {{system.unsubscribeLink}}, or even lead tokens if you want more personalization.
