When will my emails be sent?

With Mailmeteor’s scheduling feature, you can plan when to send your emails. It could be in a few minutes or up to 120 days from now.

Your scheduled emails are sent gradually. Depending on the size of your contact list, the sending may take a few minutes to one hour. This helps prevent your emails from falling into spam and secure your account.
