Settings. 

- After closely analyzing how to create and begin with your first mailing campaign while planning carefully your marketing campaign. Let's have a look on some optional settings that you need to know. For that go to settings and below shown slide will appear on your screen:-

  1. Delay between mails:- ensure a good delay between mails. If you are using your own smtp server you may keep it as low as zero .Delay between mails is number of seconds that can be set to ensure a proper gap between emails; i.e when first mail goes then after how many seconds the second mail should go. So it is a time between mails. If you keep it too low, say 5 seconds, then receiving smtp server most probably marks your emails as spam , resulting in a low delivery. It should be approximately greater than 12 for gmail and yahoo smtp senders. For your own smtp server, you may reduce it.
  2. Mail sending timeout/Internet connection timeout : Increase it if your internet speed is very low. Internet connection timeout by default is 300 seconds, so if you have fast internet you can keep keep it say 50 seconds. If in that case mail does not go in 50 seconds, then the mail will not be sent.
  3. Change header key to send unique mails as other AB Bulk Mailer users might be using this key. Headers should not be too lengthy and should contain unique alphabets.
  4. If you do not want to send headers that make mails unique,then uncheck 'use for better inbox' checkbox.
  5. You can set character of mails that are to be sent and set that to say chinese, Japanese etc. utf-8 is actually universal and should be used.
  6. You can see another option on the same screen i.e "From Email" which can be used if you have your own smtp server as gmail/yahoo does not like setting done/changed by user.
  7. You can change number of rotating bodies that will get displayed in Messages screen while assigning unique bodies to every message that is to be sent.
  8. Click on reset link to reset factory settings.
set reply id

 

- Setting up Sender Name & Reply Id.

~ Sender Name:- Enter any name,e.g name of the email sender or company name. The same name will get displayed on recepient's inbox screen.

~ If you uncheck "rotate" checkbox, sender name will be displayed and you can change that. If you check/click on "rotate", it will show you a grid of sender emails and the sender names you need to enter for each sending account and that sender name will get automatically rotated with every mail that is sent, hence improving inbox rate.

~ In case you do not want the sender name to be rotated every time, then you need to uncheck the "rotate" checkbox.

- When clients reply to your email marketing campaigns, you will get informed/notified on the given "Reply email address".
Note: Mails go from different smtp accounts but replies you will be recieving on this single account so that you can check single email account for responses from your readers.Do not worry for blacklisting of your reply id, as mails are not sent from reply id.
