How should a campaign business practitioner send a proof to a seed list?

To send a proof to a seed list in Adobe Campaign, the practitioner must first initiate the proofing process for a specific delivery. In the "Send a proof" dialog box that appears, the user must select "Seed addresses" as the target recipient. This action directs the proof delivery exclusively to the seed addresses that have been previously defined and associated with that specific delivery campaign, allowing for final checks on personalization, rendering, and deliverability before the main send.

A. Proofs are sent via a manual user action to a selected target; they are not sent automatically to seed lists before every delivery.
C. Sending proofs to seed lists is a fundamental and critical feature in Adobe Campaign for quality assurance and validation purposes.
D. The "To:" text box is for sending proofs to specific, manually entered email addresses, not for selecting a pre-defined seed list group.

"Sending proofs." This document outlines the procedure for sending a proof. In the section describing the proof sending window

it explicitly lists "Seed addresses" as a selectable option for the proof's recipient. It states

"Select this option to send the proof to the seed addresses." This directly validates that selecting the appropriate target in the menu is the correct method.

"About seed addresses." This resource explains the purpose and configuration of seed addresses. It clarifies that seed addresses are added to deliveries to "check the validity of messages before they are sent to the final target

" which inherently involves receiving proofs. This confirms that proofs can and should be sent to seed lists
