Before launching an email campaign, we strongly suggest you test your email design to see what your campaign looks like.

Once you complete designing your email, you can send a test email to preview your email in your inbox in the Design step and the Launch step.

Design Step

You can follow these steps to send a test email to yourself to test the design of your email:
1. Click the Test Message button in the top right.

2. Add the email address(es) that you want to send the email to on the screen that appears on the right side of your screen.

You can add up to 15 email addresses.

The quota for the test emails is 300 test emails per day and 30 test emails per minute. A test email can be sent to a maximum of 15 email addresses at a time.

The default limit shown here is a standard baseline. If your use case requires higher capacity, feel free to reach out to the Insider One team — we can adjust it to fit your needs.
