For example, let&#8217;s say I want to send a newsletter to my users who are interested in Fairway woods and not users who are interested in anything else. Here is my list for Jeremy&#8217;s Golf Shop. This list has 7 e-mail subscribers, all interested in different products. Using the filters feature in MailShoot, I will be able to send an e-mail only to these people, as the e-mail is going to talk about fairway woods.<\/p>\n<p>On the Send Mail tab, I am going to select Filters &amp; Limits. Next to where it says No Filter Selected, I am going to click on New to create a new filter.<\/p>\n<p>The first thing I will do is name my filter so that I can refer back to it later. I will then filter out the e-mails so that I can send an e-mail only to users interested in fairway woods. I do this by selecting Products from the first drop down menu, and typing in Fairway Woods in the text field.<\/p>\n<p>When I press the OK button, I will be taken back to the Send Mail tab, and I will see that 3 of 7 contacts match this filter. That is, 3 of the 7 users on my list are interested in Fairway Woods. I can now press the Preview and Send Mail button and send out my newsletter to these individuals. <!--codes_iframe--><!--\/codes_iframe--><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We are happy to announce that MailShoot 2.3 is now available.
