You can add target groups to certain main elements. This allows you to control a mailing so that it contains main elements only intended for a specific target group.
Example
Your newsletter contains articles intended for all recipients. (These are the blue Article 1 and Article 2 in the graphic.) You have classified certain customers as ‘Premium customers’. The newsletter should contain an additional article for premium customers. (This is the red Article 3 in the graphic.)
You can implement this application scenario by adding the ‘Premium customers’ target group to Article 3.
