Hi

I’m quite new to Mautic. I have installed the Outlook plugin - so I can track emails in Mautic. I noticed that I can see the email send in Mautic at a URL with the format email/view/xxxxxx - It is of course perfect when it is a newsletter - guess it is the (view in browser url) - but when it is a custom email I would prefer that it is not accessible through a public URL. Is it possible to disable this feature for custom emails?

Is the URL also used by ordinary newsletters (webview)?

I have installed version 2.13.1.

I was thinking about using the Outlook plugin to see if my emails have been read - and if the persons visit the website

I have the same question–how to avoid public display of custom emails–but do not use the Outlook plugin. Is there a way to disable public display of custom emails?

Thank you.
