How it runs
Each fresh signal compiles into one enrollment whose first line names that signal. Stale signals are dropped before research spends anything.
Mail goes from secondary Domains and warmed Mailboxes, about 30 sends a day each. The first send to a new list waits its delay window, and a Suppression binds every sibling within the hour.
