Hey everyone,
I finally got a new alpha out - 2
11 Alpha 8
This development version
indeed includes support for arbitrary subscriber fields
Hazzah! A
version of Dada Mail with this feature enabled has been vaporware
forever, until today, so give it a try and let me know how it works
If you wanna see it, "in the wild", I'm using it for my artsy site at:
http://justinsimoni
com/cgi-bin/dada/mail
cgi
I like sending things like postcards through the post, so having both
my email and snail mail subscription stuff in one place is really
really a nice thing
I'm also using the new alpha for the Dada Mail
support site, to give you an idea how usable the new alpha is

11 Alpha 8 New Features
Multiple Subscriber Fields
No, really - it's in there
Check it out
You'll need the SQL
backend
For a large list of improvements, do see:
"support/documentation-dada-2_11-alpha_8/
subscriber_fields_in_2_11 pod h tml" in mojo skazat com
Of note, this feature also has the below features that relate to
it:
* Mail Merging of subscriber fields
* Partial Sending based on subscriber fields
Dada Bridge
* Dada Bridge name change
The dada_bridge
pl plugin name has been modified to, Dada
Bridge,
lest we figure out a more clever name
We're still going
through the
documentation and changin' stuff
* New Option: Rewrite the From: header on announce-only
messages to the List Owner address
* Authorized Senders
If you were fond of the original Dada Mail, "moderation"
sytem, this is basically it again, relabled, "Authorized Senders"
The Authorized Senders is a sublist in Dada Mail
It contains
a list
of email addresses that are allowed to post a message to a
Dada Mail
list
This is most extremely useful for announce-only lists, where
you'd
like to give posting access to someone other than the list
owner
White List Support
White List support is back after a little break
The white list
is a
sublist of Dada Mail list that allows you to specify a list of
addresses
that are allowed to subscribe
It's basically the opposite of the
blacklist
More SQLite support
SQLite is now completely up to par with the other backends
I
doubt I'd
suggest it as a backend, but it's an option and is used for
testing
Gravatar Support
This support is very spotty and probably is broken at the moment
Go go alpha code More information:
<http://site
gravatar
com/>
Batch Sending ETA Calculator
Added a silly calculator to tell you how long a sending will
probably be It's in AJAX
Mail Monitor Enhancements
* There are now simple buttons for Pause, Resume, Stop and
Pickup a mailing
* If a mailing seems to need to be reloaded, a countdown will
tell you
when that mailout will be reloaded, instead of letting you
guess
* Mailout reloading should be a bit more stable
"Stuck" Mailouts shouldn't really happen anymore
Trace Debugging
The Config variable, $DEBUG_TRACE is now populated with a few
module
names, example: DADA_Mail_Send
Setting this name to a value of,
1 will
print many lines in your error log for things pertaining to the
DADA::Mail::Send module
A word of warning about using the $DEBUG_TRACE stuff - the
implementation isn't very complete for any module and what's
implemented may not make sense to anyone but me Be aware: Thar be dragons
(partial) Support is current there for the DADA::Mail:Send,
DADA::Mail::Mailout and DADA::App::Subscriptions modules
