What can you achieve thanks to Autopilot?

The Autopilot interface lets you define:

  • How many emails you can send per day (e.g. 300 emails/day)
  • The interval of time between each email (e.g. Send one email every 60 seconds)
  • When to start sending the emails (e.g. Right now)

You can customize each setting to achieve your email marketing goals. With optimal settings, your messages will have a better chance of reaching your recipients’ inboxes.

What are the limits of Autopilot?

Autopilot is a powerful tool. But it comes with a couple of limitations:

  • The maximum delay to send your emails is 120 days.
  • You can only add up to 10,000 contacts in your Autopilot campaign.

Why is it important to focus on deliverability?

Whenever you send an email campaign with Mailmeteor, there are several factors to consider to make sure that your emails will be well-delivered to the inbox of your recipients.

Some of these factors are in the hands of Mailmeteor, some are in your hands, and some are in the hands of the email service providers (ESPs), such as Gmail, Yahoo, or Outlook.

Autopilot gives you more control over your deliverability rate. By defining exactly when and how your emails should be sent, you can 10x your email deliverability.
