A link to a landing zone is created much in the same way as a link to a website. For the HTML editor this is done by highlighting text or an image then creating a link. For the TEXT editor you simply need to place your cursor in the position for the link.

Images, for example company logos, can be inserted into HTML emails. Please note, only flat file images (e.g. gif, bmp, jpeg, png) can be inserted into the body of an email. Flash movies and files cannot be used in the body of an email for the simple reason that the mail recipients' email client (Outlook, Lotus Notes etc.) does not allow such files. Emails with such files included in their body will be blocked.

Snapshot manager is new functionality in the html editor that protects the end user from losing their work.  Snapshots are taken automatically and whenever the user saves their creative.  

A configurable number of snapshots are kept per design, and a configurable interval between the automatic snapshots can be set.  By default this will be 10 snapshots and one every 5 minutes.  When the next snapshot is made it will overwrite the oldest one.  By default the date and time is saved into the name of snapshot.  

To help the user even further single snapshots can be protected so that they are never overwritten by the auto snapshot.  More than one can be protected so that the user can keep important milestones within the design should they need to.  Or perhaps they just broke the design by making a change.  This will now mean they can see each snapshot and revert to the last good one.

If the user wants to revert a snapshot the system will first take another snapshot of what they are about to revert from and mark it as protected.  That way there is no danger what was the latest is ever overwritten by further snapshots.  

All snapshots save both the current HTML and TEXT version, thus any revert will revert both of these.

Snapshots are saved showing the username of the user that it was created for.  As well as for informational purposes, it actually is also used to stop anyone other than that user from unprotecting snapshots not created by them.  Customers that have multiple users can therefore protect snapshots that remain there until only they say otherwise.  Or better use perhaps, when we deliver a template from design, we can protect a snapshot of it that the customer can never overwrite.

Please note the snapshot manager is a replacement of the old auto save popup within the email editor.  

Snapshot manager is available at the following places…

• Emails
• Landing Zones

Everyone these days uses spam blocking software to prevent what they deem to be junk mail. The spam blocking software will use key words or common junk email patterns in an email to determine whether an email is permissible or not.

The spam check will check an emails content to look for possible spam violations.

Along the top of the Email Editor are a the Content Buttons, each one is explained here.
