When creating an email in GoExpo, you must select a To Group. Simply, the To Group is needed so that GoExpo knows who to send the email to.
To Group is a term used often in GoExpo when discussing the intended recipients of a campaign you wish to send. There are many different To Groups to choose from, including those with a predefined rule that indicates exactly who you are sending the email to, as well as those which you can create yourself from an external mailing list.
It is very important to note that not all To Groups function the same, so be sure to read the descriptions below before sending to a To Group for the first time.
