Operational Emails
Overview
When Prospects unsubscribe from emails or have their Email Opt Out flag set it's possible they should still receive non-marketing communications. For example, system status or legal notification emails that should be delivered to all users/customers. Operational emails are also great for internal communications.
When an email is set as operational, the following will happen:
- List members who have unsubscribed will still receive the email.
- List members who have Email Opt Out set on their profile will still receive the email.
- List members who have an email that has bounced will not receive the email.
- The unsubscribe link will not be added to the email automatically.
