Auto Emails are handled by an automated background task that evaluates active campaigns and inserts them into the standard email delivery system.

Processing Schedule

Auto Emails are processed:

• Daily

During each run, the system reviews all active Auto Email campaigns.

Processing Logic

For each active Auto Email, the system performs a series of validation checks:

• Membership allows Auto Emails
• Auto Email limits are not exceeded
• Daily sending limits are respected
• Email frequency rules are satisfied
• Matching recipients are available
• Sufficient credits are available

If any condition fails, the Auto Email is skipped.

Recipient Selection

Recipients are selected based on:

• Subscription status (subscribed users only)
• Optional membership filtering
• Optional country filtering
• Sender exclusion (sender is never included)

If no recipients match, the Auto Email is not processed.

Credit Calculation

Required credits depend on applied filters:

• Base cost per recipient
• Additional cost for membership filtering
• Additional cost for country filtering

Total credits required:

• Number of recipients × Cost per recipient

If credits are insufficient, the Auto Email is skipped.

Email Creation

When all checks pass:

• A new record is created in the regular email processing system
• Status is set to Pending
• Required credits are deducted from the sender

At this stage, the Auto Email becomes a standard email campaign.

Delivery Handling

Once inserted:

• The normal email sending system processes the campaign
• Sending behavior follows standard email rules
• Tracking, reporting, and limits work identically

Auto Emails do not use a separate delivery mechanism.

Key Notes

• Auto Emails generate standard email campaigns
• All membership rules and limits apply
• Credits are consumed at campaign creation
• Delivery is handled by the regular email system
• Campaigns may be skipped if conditions are not met
