You should do your own test run after you set up your auto responder. Be the first subscriber on your list. This can be done adding your own email or subscribing to your own opt-in list. Once you receive a confirmation mail, click, then you will receive your mail from the auto responder. You have just done what a visitor to your site would do. If you are happy with the results, your auto responder is working as you desired.
If you don’t want to use your own address you can set up a secondary e-mail address for yourself, and subscribe it to your own mailing list. When your auto-responder sends out messages, you will receive the outward copy which you can peruse. This is a good way to check the formatting and alert you to how well the auto-responder is working.
Once you are using an auto responder you should receive reports and this will indicate how it is working. There are various things you can look for to determine how well it works for you. Check the report for the actions or reactions of the recipients. For example, you can check for number of subscribers, revenue generated, who visited a particular page, most popular products, who viewed your emails in Hotmail, Gmail, Yahoo, etc.
