Implement preview message functionality

Issue Summary

I did not see a way to send out a test message. For now, i have created an additional role and an additional category, with that role assigned to it. But it would be really nice to be able to select a check box marked 'send as test' to '' when creating a message to ensure that the message sends correctly. I supposed that would mean that the messazge should be saved so that it can then be edited and sent for real.

Thanks Julie

How about a Preview button/mode like a regular node or comment?

HI,

I get problems alot maybe with my provider, I think it all started when I installed the mime module or something like that.

so a preview or like the newsletter module, (simple news?) they have a test account name or email you can send it to and once it's great, you set it to send to normal users. etc.. This would be a great addition.

As nice as a preview function would be, it still won't point out problems in the delivery, only the presentation. For testing the delivery, I created a separate category, for my use only, that sends the message to a few of my e-mail addresses.

I've changed my mind and decided that I won't implement this feature after all. I've got too many other things going on and this is way down on the list of priorities.
