Dispatch — Broadcast mailer

Write a broadcast

Plain text only. Optional link is appended unless you already placed {link} in the body.

Subject

Message

Placeholders: {name} {email} {link} {link_label} {unsubscribe}

Link label

Link URL

Send to

No segments selected — sends to everyone active.

Schedule

Leave blank to send now. A future time waits until nothing else is sending, then the cron starts it on its own.

Shuffle send order

Random order each broadcast. Off keeps the list sequence (A–Z).

Sending continues on the server — you can close the tab.
