Testing Email in Readysell Test

When using the test version of Readysell 8 for testing email, the emails are not sent out to any recipients. Emails are generated out of our test emailing service purely flagged but not physically emailed. This is prevent accidental sending of emails to customers but still give the operator the ability to see if it can get a send successfully message. If you require further testing with sending actual emails out, in the Live version of Readysell, there a flag know as "Test mode" in the General Tab. This will allow you to send out emails but any emails will be directed back to the operator's email address.
