Recovered unsent campaigns

A recovered unsent campaign displays the campaign setup screen. You can then edit these settings and continue to edit the content of the campaign or save the campaign, in the normal way.

Recovered sent campaigns

A recovered sent campaign is reinstated in the Sent tab under Campaigns > Email, in the folder specified. Its reporting is also recovered and available to view as normal.
