SMTP
Anchor
smtp
smtp

The campaign SMTP configuration overrides the global or the default SMTP configuration. Please check the next examples to understand how this section works.

  1. GIVEN -> The global SMTP configuration is a DEFAULT. WHEN -> created a new campaign its SMTP configuration also will be the DEFAULT. THEN -> the global configuration changed to the custom one, but the campaign configuration was left in the DEFAULT.

  2. GIVEN -> The global SMTP configuration is a CUSTOM (on the campaign level it's called a GLOBAL). WHEN -> created a new campaign its SMTP configuration will be a GLOBAL. THEN -> the global configuration changed to some new value, in that case, the SMTP campaign configuration switched to the CAMPAIGN state, as its value is different from the DEFAULT and the GLOBAL.
    Regarding these examples, you may notice that the campaign SMTP configuration copies the value from the global SMTP configuration when it's created and store this state until it will be changed directly inside the campaign.
    The campaign SMTP configuration might be in the three states: CAMPAIGN, GLOBAL, or DEFAULT. The state can be downgraded from the CAMPAIGN to the GLOBAL (if the global config exists) or to the DEFAULT by clicking a Delete button.

...

The campaign also can be upgraded to the GLOBAL state if it’s state the DEFAULT and the global config exists by clicking Upgrade to global button.

...

To quickly check current SMTP status you can use information from the campaigns list under the campaign name.

Depending on the type of user email (internal or external) survey link in the email will follow one of the sites for the survey form.
