How to bulk resend emails from the email logs

Updated September 29, 2026

Bulk resend emails from the Regal Send log when you need to make a new delivery attempt for one or more retained messages. Regal Send reviews each selected log before sending so you can see which messages are eligible.

Each resend is recorded as a new linked attempt so the original audit record remains unchanged.

Before you start#

• Open Regal Send with an account that can manage the Email Logs page.
• Full Logging must have retained the message content when the original email was sent.
• At least one valid To address is required.
• Any retained attachment copies must still be available.
• Check whether the original email may already have reached its recipients. Resending a message marked Sent can create a duplicate.

Bulk resend emails from the log#

1. Open Regal Send > Email Logs.
2. Select the checkbox beside each message to resend. Use the checkbox above the table to select all visible rows.
3. Choose Resend selected from the bulk action menu and select Apply.
4. Review the recipients, subject and Ready or Skipped status shown for each message.
5. Confirm that each repeat send is appropriate, then select Confirm and resend.
6. Review the result notice for accepted, failed and skipped attempts.

Each resend creates a new linked log. The original log is preserved.

What the resend uses#

Bulk resend uses:

• The original To, CC and BCC recipients.
• The retained message content.
• Any available retained attachments.
• The currently active mailer and sender rules.

To change the recipients before resending, use the individual log review instead.

Why the original row may still say Failed#

The original row always keeps the result of the original delivery attempt. Regal Send does not overwrite that history when a resend succeeds.

After a resend, the original row can also show:

• Resent successfully when the latest linked resend was accepted.
• Latest resend failed when the newest resend attempt failed.

Select the resend result to open the newest linked resend log.

A successful resend also creates a new Sent log entry.

Sent means the configured transport accepted the email for delivery. It does not confirm that the email reached the recipient’s inbox.

If a message is skipped#

A message can be skipped when:

• Its retained message content is unavailable.
• It no longer has a valid recipient.
• A required retained attachment copy is unavailable.
• Its eligibility changes between the review page and final confirmation.

Review the skipped reason shown by Regal Send.

If the original message was not stored using Full Logging, its complete content cannot be reconstructed later. Enable Full Logging for future messages that may need to be resent.
