These options are only visible when editing an [automatic campaign](https://docs.acymailing.com/main-pages/campaigns/automatic-campaigns).

* **Only newly created:** This option makes sure that the same elements aren't sent twice to your receivers. It is based on the publishing date.
* **Min. number of elements**: If the number of elements found in your feed is lower than the number you specify, the email won't be sent. This is only useful when using the "Automatic" option in the "Send settings" tab of a campaign.
