Overview: When using Smartlead, it's important to understand that deleting an email account from an active campaign can have implications on the associated campaign leads. This article explains the process and consequences of deleting an email account from an active campaign in Smartlead.
Deleting an Email Account from an Active Campaign: If you delete an email account that is associated with an active campaign in Smartlead, it will cause the existing campaign leads associated with that email account to be stopped from receiving further emails. This is because the email account associated with the lead has been deleted, and Smartlead will no longer be able to use that email account for sending emails to those leads.
Re-adding an Email Account after Deletion: If you want to re-add the same email account after deleting it from an active campaign, please note that it will be treated as a new email account and will not automatically associate with the existing campaign leads. This means that any leads that were previously associated with the deleted email account will not receive any new emails from that email account after it has been re-added. Instead, the re-added email account will be treated as a new email account and will only be used for sending emails to new leads that are added to the campaign after the email account has been re-added.
Effect on Mailbox Usage: Once an email account has been deleted from an active campaign, the associated mailbox will no longer be used for any new leads going forward. This means that any new leads added to the campaign will not be sent emails from the deleted email account. However, it's important to note that any leads that are "in progress" at the time of email account deletion will also not receive any new emails, as the email account associated with those leads has been deleted.
Conclusion: Deleting an email account from an active campaign in Smartlead will cause the existing campaign leads associated with that email account to be stopped from receiving further emails. Re-adding the email account after deletion will treat it as a new email account and will not automatically associate with the existing campaign leads. The associated mailbox will not be used for any new leads, and any leads that are "in progress" at the time of email account deletion will not receive any new emails.
