Sometimes,
stuff happens
.
You intended to send a message to the Group with 40 people, but accidentally targeted the Group with 500 people.
In those situations, it is nice to have an
Emergency STOP
button–that instantly suspends all outgoing messages. After the problem is resolved, you hit the
GO!
button to continue.
While in the paused state, all incoming messages will be
queued
for later delivery.
