After you send a group message, PastorsLine logs the statistics of that send. Part of those statistics are duplicates and failed numbers. We have made the failed numbers statistic more accurate:  

1. We identify the failed numbers (numbers that we could not send to) as landlines or unformatted numbers.

2. On the next group message, in addition to the duplicates as before, we do not attempt to send to those failed numbers (landlines + unformatted numbers). This saves you credits.

PastorsLine used to automatically send you an email with the statistics of each group message sent. To do this, we turned the Automated Group Statistics Email Alerts default to On for everyone.

Some churches felt that they were getting too many of these notification emails.  

The default is now Off. In other words, you will not automatically receive emails 'pinging' you about sent group messages. The information will still be logged in PastorsLine and is accessible via your Dashboard.

If you want to receive such emails, you will need to actually turn on this option.

NOTE: If you are not sure where to go to turn this on, we've got you covered. It is in Settings - - User Settings - - Notifications. Walkthrough in this article.
