Sending emails - simple question!

[JFro]

I'm a little bit scared on Actinic when it comes to emails... strange things have happened before where it's started re-sending all previous emails! So this time I want to ask before I try something...

We tick off despatched orders manually on Actinic, so we can send customers a specific email to say whether their order has been despatched via carrier or Royal Mail. I always do this after the orders have actually been sent (not wanting to tempt fate if we don't make the connection with the driver!), but I don't want to spend my Friday evening ticking off orders...

So my question is, if I open an order by double clicking on it, go to the 'mail' tab, select 'new' and the required email template, and then click 'done' rather than 'send now', will I be able to queue the emails to send later at the click of a button (Operations | send emails I'm guessing)?

If this would work, can I clear the email queue before I start? There may be other unsent emails on the system already, which I would not want to suddenly send now.

Thanks!

Yes, Clicking Done will queue the emails like you said.
In V9 you can click on 'List Emails > All' from the 'Operations' menu to see all resent sent and unsent email, sent emails will have tick next to them, you can also select any unsent emails and delete them. I would guess V10 is very simialr if not the same.
