Indico hints

Emailing people

Warning

Emailing registrants directly out of Indico risks that emails go into spam folders.

Alternative is to export the list of addresses into a CSV file and to import the addresses into your institutional email system as BCC.

• Go to registration list

• Filter people based on who you need

• Select all (this selects only the visible people; you can confirm this by looking at the names in the email box, though you can’t see them all our count them)

• Actions → Email

• Compose your email (warning: it is easy to lose everything, there is no saving)

• Preview email to make sure it works

• Ensure that it is sent from support@coderefinery.org

  • If you want a real test, you could register and send the first draft to yourself (make sure you copy the full text first, otherwise you lose the placeholders)

• Copy full text before you send the email, otherwise you lose the form fields.

• Click send

• Don’t worry
