Receive Timeout

Send Timeout

This is the timeout period when trying to send data to the mail server.  If data can't be sent within this number of seconds, the current e-mail will be aborted, and Auto Mailer will continue on with the next e-mail.

Encoding Character Set

Specifies the character set to use for encoding the messages.  You can specify any 8 bit character set name.  The default is iso-8859-1.  (more info)

When Sending Directly to Recipient, Only Verify Address

Turns on/off the "Verify" mode.  This option only applies with using the Send Directly to Recipient sending method.  When this option is enabled Auto Mailer connects to the recipients mail server, and verifies that their e-mail address is still valid, and accepted by their mail server.  It then disconnects, without actually sending a message.  The recipient will not receive any message.  This is a useful option for checking the quality of your mailing list without actually sending e-mails.

Skip Duplicate Recipients

When this option is on, only one message will be sent to each unique e-mail address in the mailing list.  If the mailing list has the same e-mail address listed multiple times, the duplicate entries will be skipped.

'Cc' on All Sent Emails:

Use this option to carbon copy one or more e-mail addresses on all of the e-mails being sent.  This feature is only available when you are sending through an SMTP mail server.  The "Cc" e-mail address(es) can be entered as just an e-mail address:

bob@domain.com

or to copy multiple e-mails addresses, separate the e-mails with a comma and a space:

bob@domain.com, sally@domain.com

or it can include a "display name" in the format shown here:

"Bob Jones" <bob@domain.com>

In the case where you have a display name, most e-mail clients will display the display name (Bob Jones in this example).  You can only specify one e-mail address when using this format.

'Bcc' on All Sent Emails:

Works the same as the "'Cc' on All Sent Emails" option, but this blind carbon copies the specified e-mail address(es)
