• I have designed a course, which sends daily email to participants for 28 days. The emails have daily task for participants. I want the emails to be delivered before 5 AM daily. There are two questions –

    1) Is this possible to set time when the email is sent?
    2) How is Mailpoet determine when to send an email in series?

    Hi @memelb,

    1) Is this possible to set time when the email is sent?

    Yes, this is possible if you manually send the emails or set a Post Notification email to be sent at a specific time. The plugin will use your website’s timezone, so keep in mind the time you’ll set may not be the same for all your subscribers if they’re in different places.

    2) How is Mailpoet determine when to send an email in series?

    It depends on the type of email you’re creating. Automations have different triggers to send the emails (newly registered WordPress User, newly registered subscriber, customer abandoned the cart, order status changed).

    Welcome Emails, usually used for drip campaigns, schedule the emails to be sent according to the subscriber’s subscription date. This means that existing subscribers won’t get these emails, but new users who subscribe through your subscription form once you’re using MailPoet and have set these emails will.

    Unfortunately, for Automation and Welcome Emails, because they use specific triggers to schedule the emails, you won’t be able to specify the time these emails will be sent, as the triggers will vary from subscriber to subscriber.

    I hope this clarifies. For reference: https://kb.mailpoet.com/article/244-how-to-create-a-drip-campaign-with-welcome-emails

    Thanks for your detailed response !

    Let’s assume for the drip email

    As subscriber joins at 9 AM
    the first email is set to go after 1 minute
    the second email is set to go after 1 day
    the third email is set to go after 2 days

    Does this mean , All the emails will be going to the user somewhere around 9 AM ? or It would go at any random time after 1 or 2 days

    Hi @memelb

    Yes, that’s correct. All Welcome emails will be scheduled based on the time the user subscribed.

    Please see the video, I do not think it delivers around the subscriber sign in time.
