Hi, I created a campaign to send out one single email to a segment with leads. I scheduled the email to be sent out tomorrow at 8am (I timed the campaign action). After that I enabled the campaign and the contacts were added. Some minutes ago I decided it would be more clever to send out the email today. For that I updated the campaign action to today 8am. The emails were successfully sent out. BUT: The emails are still in the upcoming email applet on my dashboard to be sent out tomorrow at 8am. Now I am really afraid that the email will be sent out again to all leads. - I disabled the campaign - I tried to remove the contacts from the campaign (the actual campaign was not displayed?) - The emails were marked as marketing emails - As Mautic sends out every campaign action only once, the email should not go out twice All this would mean that I am on the safe side. However, the emails are still marked as upcoming. What should I do? Thanks, P. ---

So, were the emails sent twice? ---

> [@26571:@denispavliha](#): > > So, were the emails sent twice? I didn’t want to challenge that! 🙂 Shortly after I posted I recognized that, in fact, the emails were not sent out although the campaign send email action displayed 100%. I then deleted the campaign and setup a new one. I will try to reproduce this and log an issue in Git if I succeed. ---

Maybe it is just a frontend bug and the emails wouldn’t be sent out? D. ---

Could be. I think it was a f\*\*\*up with me playing around with the dates (campaign start date, campaign end date, email send action date).
