+Before actually dispatching your email, we advise you to start a test delivery. Only then can you really find out how your email appears in the inbox. The recipients for your test distribution list can be viewed and edited at //Settings > Test delivery list//.
-==== Create and edit test mailing list ====
+===== Create and edit test mailing list =====
 The list shows all recipients in the current client’s test delivery list in addition to the recipients in the test delivery lists of all subordinate clients. Each client’s list can be selected separately for a test dispatch. Add a new recipient for the list by clicking the button “Create test address” on the bottom right.
-In the detail view of a recipient, all of his or her data can be entered and edited via the four tabs General, Identity, Address and More. This includes the recipient’s first and last name, gender, postal address and so on. Special fields set up in the current client and used as a variable in the current e-mail can be given content here. When you go back to the list, the recipient can be marked as active or inactive.
+By clicking the green button on the bottom right, //create test user//, you can create a new test user. In addition, you can import a new test mailing list or export the current test mailing list.
+To create a new test user, please insert an email address. In step 2, //Insert test user data//; you can decide if you want to add all fields existing in your client to make them available as a variable for the test delivery. At this point, you can remove all data fields that you don't need for the test delivery by clicking //x//. Optionally, you can remove all fields of a record that are empty.

When you go back to the list, the recipient can be marked as active or inactive.
