How it works

Nothing dated today. Today's rows can still clear before the day ends, so they wait. They show in the skipped list instead.

One person, one message. Rows group by email address. Every open date for that person goes into the same message.

First contact or repeat. Anyone not on the contacted list gets the first-contact template. Everyone else gets the repeat. Source order is kept.

Update the list the same day. Once you send, copy the updated contacted list back so nobody gets introduced twice.

Silent after two messages? Put them on the non-responder list, and rebuild that list name by name from the latest queue, never by subtraction.

Pairs with Queue Diff: diff the list first, then build the messages from what is still open. Everything saves in this browser only.
