  • Yes, you cannot do anything with ACF fields from the DB until after ACF saves the values and acf has not done so when the hook you are using runs, so this is returning the old value and not the updated value

    
    if(get_field("send_newsletter",$postid)){
    

    in order to do things base on acf fields you need to do one of two things

    The first it to use the acf/save_post hook to run your code.

    The second is to look in $_POST[‘acf’] to check field values.

    See this for more information on both https://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/acf-save_post/
