keeping track of the sample emails sent when setting up

Hi Community,

Does anyone know how I can access the historic and keep track of the sample emails that I am sending out during the setting up of an email campaign?

I am trying to avoid to have to use seed lists for approval process as that it then impacting the quality of my email insights and reporting.

Thanks in advance

There is nothing that I'm aware of that will do this for you out of the box in Marketo. 

One of the things we've done in the past is to create an email alias and have everyone who sends samples to always include the alias so that we can know what samples are being sent and at what time. Although, it wasn't very helpful because nobody was really using it.

Another thing was that we created clones which helped keep the reporting separate.  During test phases, we would use live records or seed lists.  Then, when it was time to go live, we would clone the email, fix it up a bit and then send that one instead.
