Check the first message, which links to a URL identified by its title (Introducing The Paracast+).

It converted the URL: https://www.theparacast.com/plus/

Justin, I’d like to see that feature, and also one that automatically converts a URL to a site’s title.

Example?

I'm considering adding a feature in Dada Mail, where all outgoing links (or only ones you care about per domain...) are automatically (and hopefully intelligently) appended with UTM query string parameters, so that you can integrate email messages you send out with Dada Mail with Google Site Analytics. Basically it'll allow you to understand if people are coming to your site via the mass mailings you send out in Google Analytics.

I'm sure people do this now, but it's a manual process. This would make it as easy as it can be - and of course, something that's optional.

For this type of feature, is there anything that is a must-have? I'd like to release something useful within the next few weeks, then build upon the feature in the future. Getting something that useful out asap is my first concern, but if it's not useful, then why bother?
