All aspects of modifying the individual members on the recipient list and saving drafts, previewing messages and actually sending are covered in the previous section

Reuse an Existing Message

It’s alright to use an existing message as the basis of your message but their are some extra things to consider when mail lists are involved.

Select message to use

Start by selecting the previous message to be used

Replace Recipients

Mail lists are dynamic and members can add or remove themselves so the recipient must be refreshed by removing the existing ones and re-adding.

replace attachments

Remove any old attachments from the previous message and add any new ones required.

Warning

If the attachment has changed then it must be removed and re-added even though it has the same name. This is because it has only changed on your local machine and needs be changed on the server.
