Hi, for the Automated addon, please, open a ticket so the right person can take care of it. At first sight, you probably just need to enter the config of the automated addon (on the bottom of the page where the channels are listed) and set to "run" as an administrator.
When the newsletter is generated, Automated is in the "cron" context of WP, as an anonymous user, so the PMP filters are 99% removing the events from the query.
I have a note on my desk to change the "test" of an automated channel to execute on that context so it will be easier to detect those situations.
