See below for more information -v :: Dada Mail 3.0.1 Stable Released Download Dada Mail: <a href="http://dadamailproject.com/download">http://dadamailproject.com/download</a> Dada Mail is a Free Download. This is a bug-fix only release of Dada Mail - but we've accumulated well over 20 bugs found and squashed. This release should be a breeze of an upgrade, if you're running Dada Mail 3.0.0. See the changelog: <a href="http://dadamailproject.com/support/documentation-dada-3_0_1/changes.pod.html">http://dadamailproject.com/support/documentation-dada-3_0_1/changes.pod.html</a> for more information. :: What is Dada Mail? Dada Mail is a completely contemporary, mature and intuitive web-based e-mail list management system, which runs on most any Unix-like hosting account that can run custom CGI scripts. Dada Mail is also a conceptual art project. Dada Mail handles Closed-Loop Opt-in/Opt-out subscriptions, sending complex announce-only and/or discussion mailing list messages with an advanced, fault-tolerant mass mailing monitor, supports the archiving/viewing/searching/resending/syndicating (rss, atom) of sent messages and doing all this and a whole lot more with style. Dada Mail can handle custom subscriber fields and you can use the information it captures for partial list sending based on a query and Dada Mail's email templating system allows you to create targeted and completely custom email messages for each and every one one of your subscribers. Dada Mail is bundled with additional plugins and extensions to extend Dada Mail's capabilities. Some of the plugins/extensions support advanced bounce handling, clickthrough tracking, mass mail scheduling, blog interfaces of archived messages, AJAX subscription form trickery and lots of other surprises. Dada Mail produces XHTML valid web content and sticks to best practices when creating email messages. Write Once: Distribute Everywhere. Dada Mail is free software that you're able to use, modify, share and enhance under the terms of the GNU General Public License. Dada Mail is written in Perl because we love Perl. :: The Dada Mail Demo Want to play around with the program before downloading? Try our demo: <a href="http://demo.dadamailproject.com">http://demo.dadamailproject.com</a> :: Pro Dada 3 Pro Dada is a version of Dada Mail for people who want to support the Dada Mail Project financially. For the last 8+ years, Dada Mail has been written primarily by one developer and the Dada Mail project is what's been paying his college student loans and helping him develop as an active, prolific, exhibiting Artist. Thank you for everyone's support in the last 8+ years. A purchase of Pro Dada 3 gives you a One Year Subscription allowing you to: * Download Pro Dada, a version of Dada Mail configured without list creation or subscription quota restrictions * Download the Dada Mail Manual, a user-centric manual covering most all of Dada Mail's List Control Panel, as well as installing and upgrading Dada Mail and with a few other advanced topics - over 20 chapters in all. * View the same Dada Mail Manual conveniently online * In Program Nag Messages un-Nagged * Warm Fuzzy Feelings that you're supporting a developing Career Artist, Independent Programmer and Free Software in General Pro Dada is self-serve, so you may purchase it via PayPal at: <a href="http://dadamailproject.com/purchase/pro.html">http://dadamailproject.com/purchase/pro.html</a> And download it at: <a href="http://dadamailproject.com/pro_dada">http://dadamailproject.com/pro_dada</a> Your subscription keeps the Dada Mail Project running.

It brings some exciting features to Dada Mail, specifically to the Mailing Monitor part of Dada Mail. If you've used that part of Dada Mail extensively, you'll know how valuable and powerful it is. Some improvements: * A limit on how many mailouts may go out at once * A limit on how long a mailout can sit without doing anything before it becomes, "stale" (and won't be automatically acted upon) * The ability to pause a mailout * Mailout queueing support, so your awaiting mailouts don't just disappear. We really need some help in testing out the new features, so if you can, give it a download (for testing purposes only!) and let us know how it fares. The alpha version also has a new extension called, "blog_index.cgi", which writes a page of archived messages in a, "blog style", with all the messages in one page. We're using it ourselves on the home page of the Dada Mail support site and it may prove to be a popular extension to Dada Mail for people looking to solve multiple problems with a simple, easy and integrated solution. Here's more information on that plugin: <<a href="http://mojo.skazat.com/support/documentation-dada-2_11-alpha_5/blog_index.cgi.html>">http://mojo.skazat.com/support/documentation-dada-2_11-alpha_5/blog_index.cgi.html&gt</a>; Also, do note that this alpha version has an entire set of its own documentation at: <<a href="http://mojo.skazat.com/support/documentation-dada-2_11-alpha_5>">http://mojo.skazat.com/support/documentation-dada-2_11-alpha_5&gt</a>; :: New docs: The Road to Multiple Fields Finally (whew!), we've put up some, "blue print" docs on how we're going to get multiple fields in Dada Mail. We've been hard at work with changing the infrastructure of Dada Mail from the inside out to support such a feature and these docs are working from the outside in, with a bird's eye view of what's going happen to Dada Mail, all the way to programming API's. We're still hard at work on the blueprint, but we'd really appreciate your feedback. <a href="http://mojo.skazat.com/support/documentation-dada-2_11-alpha_5/Multiple_Fields.pod.html">http://mojo.skazat.com/support/documentation-dada-2_11-alpha_5/Multiple_Fields.pod.html</a> So, a lot happening in Dada Mail World. I hope everyone is doing well and thank you for your continued support to this ever growing and changing project!
