Once you click on the "Send Test Email", you will see these three things in the drop-down:-

* From address (you can enter any demo email here).
* To address (Recipients address; since this is a test mail, enter your own or that of your team).
* Email subject

Fill the above details and send yourself the test mail. Once you are satisfied with the outcome, you can start sending the mail out to recipients.

### Send To Smart List

If you have created any smart lists (which are basically a way of segregating your contacts into theme-based) such as existing customers, leads, future customers, and frequent buyers, you can select the list as your recipient. This is important as it allows you to send relevant email campaigns to similar customers.
