Hi Sofia,

I hope all is well,

This IS possible to a degree, although not to the user who set this up who does not have the correct access... When you set up a broadcast schedule, there is an option to turn on Failure Notification's, which is on by default when you set this up.

Having done this, there's a box next to that to place which user group you'd like to receive the failure notification, which you'd likely set as your Admin group:

f1d802160c79b1a7354e91d74e47c7c6

If an e-mail broadcast failed to send at this point, any user in the Administrators group above, would receive a failure notification so they'd be prompted to head into the Schedule Management section, look into why it failed, and re-send the broadcast to the user (depending on the reason for error, of course!).

Ultimately, I'd say the failure notification is strictly for admin purposes. Hopefully this clears things up a bit. Please let me know if you have any further questions or if I appeared to have missed something, happy to assist where I can.

Regards,

Mark
