Summary and translation:
If the verb can be replaced with "schicken", both versions are correct. In this case sandte/gesandt is used more frequently though. It's the same for compounded verbs like
absenden, entsenden, übersenden, versenden, zurücksenden, zusenden,...
„Sie sandten/sendeten Urlaubsgrüße.“
„Das gestern versandte/versendete Päckchen soll an ihrem Geburtstag ankommen.“
„Wann wurde der Brief abgesandt/abgesendet?“
When you're talking about technology (im Fernsehen, über eine Funkanlage oder Ähnliches ausstrahlen) only the version with "e" is correct.
„Die Liveübertragung wurde im dritten Programm gesendet.“
„Sie sendeten alle fünf Minuten ein Signal.“
