Automatic Address Validation Letter

[Professional and Corporate Editions Only]
The Automatic Letters dialog lets you create or edit the text of the automatic letter that AY Track can send to the new subscribers.

The validation letter is sent every time a new subscription arrives.

If a Confirm macro is used, AY Track shall not alter the message, and the recipient will have to click on the confirmation URL to confirm the address. The subscription information will only become available after the click.

If there is no Confirm macro, AY Track automatically adds a confirmation id to the subject line and the body of the validation letter. The subscriber has to send a reply letter. Once the reply letter is received, the subscribtion information will be made available to AY Mail.

You can obtain the subscription information by selecting Advanced->Check for Subscriptions/Unsubscriptions from the main menu, however usually you do not need this because AY Mail automatically pull all the subscription information every time the project containing a reference to the subcription form is opened.
