About Proof Contacts

You can send a message to your proof contacts to find out exactly how the message will appear in recipients' inboxes.

You can designate any contact as a proof contact either when creating or editing a contact or when testing a message. For instructions for designating a proof contact, see Designating Proof Contacts.
