When someone subscribes to your newsletter, you can have the system immediately send back a welcome message. This email can be a plain text message that you define for this purpose, a specifically designed issue of your newsletter, or it can be the current, most recent issue.

To configure this auto-response message, follow these steps:

From the Main Menu, click to open the Subscription Builder,
Under Notifications you will find the Welcome Message setting.
Choose the type of Welcome Message you would like to send. Select [Default Welcome] to send a plain text message that contains your edits. When this option is selected, the EDIT button appears and provides access to a simple Welcome Message editor.

IMPORTANT NOTE: If you choose to send an Issue of your newsletter, make sure that Issue has been posted to the Web and sent via email at least once. The message you send will use the format specified in the most recent mailing of that Issue. This is especially important to remember if the Welcome Message setting is set to [Current Issue].
