Working with Subscriber Segments
A subscriber segment defines the criteria for separating subscribers into groups. The
Subscriber Segment List page displays the current list of subscriber segments, a
short description of each segment, and an estimated number of subscribers. The
number of subscribers is only an estimate because some segments need to know the
content list to determine whether a subscriber matches a criterion. Also, a subscriber
can initiate service after the segment has been created and they might be included in
the segment when a campaign is processed.
Only subscribers who selected the “Notify me for update or promotions” option
through the subscriber portal are included in a subscriber segment.
