Sending policies dictate how to send alerts, to whom, and when. The how to send and to whom of the policy is specified by the delivery methods that are selected for the policy. Therefore, in order to create a sending policy, you must have at least one delivery method already available. The when is defined in the sending policy but can be restricted with an optional anti-flooding policy associated.
Sending policies are managed in the Administration → Alert configuration area, in the Alert Policies top tab, and then inside the Sending Policy tab.
...
Once you've created a sending policy, it is available to be assigned to alerts in the Available Alerts tab of the Administration → Alert Configuration area (click here to know more).
