How to send a mail to user by using Sitecore Rules

I am trying to send a mail to user by using Sitecore rules. I created a rule in Item Saved event in Rules. My Rule is like this

    "where user profile Fullname field is not empty
    send Newsletter Message 10T023615 e-mail"

but it doesn't make any sense.Please can anyone explain me how the rule works and when the Item saved event fire.

A Rule consists of 2 parts: a Condition and an Action. The Condition part of your Rule you mention there is:

where user profile Fullname field is not empty

The Action part of your Rule is:

send Newsletter Message 10T023615 e-mail

When the rule runs and the Condition evaluates to True it will trigger the action. You'll need to have that rule trigger on some type of action of a visitor.
You can add rules for instance to specific components, to do personalization for example.

Just looking at your rule it would seem to me that for this type of thing you'd create an Engagement Plan. For more information on Engagement Plans, please take a look at this article on doc.sitecore.net. This is a walkthrough for editing message engagement plans. This is written for Sitecore 8, if you're interested in an older version I know there's cookbooks available for engagement automation on Sitecore's Develop Network.
