PHPlist allows you to **send a message to list(s) of users** (see [[ListAndUserFunctionsInfo 'What are lists and users?']])
In addition to being a simple mailing list system, PHPlist allows you to send targeted messages using **criteria**. These criteria use the attributes and attribute values given by users (see [[ConfigureAttributesInfo 'What are attributes?']] and [[AttributeValuesInfo 'what are values?']])
You can include these values in the messages to make these messages more user-specific by using **placeholders** (see [[SendMessageInfo 'What is a placeholder?']])
You can create **templates** for your future messages (see [[ConfigureTemplatesInfo 'What is a template?']])
Once your messages are sent, you can **view messages**, view **statistics** on how many messages were sent, how many of them were opened by users, how many users clicked links provided in the messages, etc. (see [[MessageStatisticsInfo Message Statistics]])
To send a message using Phplist, there are a minimum of four rules to follow:
~1) You have to have a message to send: you can't send an empty message! So the [[SendMessageInfo Message Content]] tab must be appropriately filled in.
~1) You have to choose one or several lists you will send the message to. So you must choose at least one list in the [[SendMessageListsInfo Select Lists]] tab.
~1) Do not forget to click on #%Save changes#% when you go from one tab to the next.
~1) You have to [[ProcessQueueInfo process the message queue]] to actually send out the message.
At any point, you can send a **test message** to see what the actual message would look like. Note: whenever you send a test message, none of the rules above apply. It is highly recommended to send yourself test messages if you are unfamiliar with Phplist. Please note that a test message will **not** take into account any [[SendMessageCriteriaInfo Criteria]], but it **will** replace placeholders by the values of the file of the user specified in the address field.
===Tips===
~1) Always send yourself a **test message** before sending our your message. This is particularly true if you send out complex messages with [PLACEHOLDERS] and/or HTML formatting.
~1) Try using **placeholders** whenever you can. This is useful to make your emails more user-specific.
~1) Allow people to return to their personal file by adding a **[PREFERENCES]** placeholder somewhere in your message.
