html#3_1_0

A lot of the changes have to do with the documentation, ! Copywriters:
if you want to look over the below and let me know if there's any
stupid mistakes (or, if it just plain Makes Sense), I'd appreciate it:

Requirements - (This is actually a new doc) http://dadamailproject com/support/documentation-dada-3_1_0-pre_snapshot-10_24_08/requirements pod html

One of the new requirements, at least for the 3 1 snapshots is Perl
5 8 If you don't have 5 8 installed, Dada Mail won't work

The, DADA::MailingList::Settings docs (there was a bug that these docs
didn't exist) http://dadamailproject com/support/documentation-dada-3_1_0-pre_snapshot-10_24_08/MailingList_Settings pm html

The, Beatitude docs (there was a bug that these docs were outdated) http://dadamailproject com/support/documentation-dada-3_1_0-pre_snapshot-10_24_08/scheduled_mailings pl html

Here's the relevant bugs that have been fixed that correspond to this
particular snapshot (see the entire changelog for the 35+ bugfix list)

I've done a lot of work to get the MIME encoded-word support working
better, and I think I've done this

Doing so, I've started working with getting Dada Mail unicode- compliant, so that any further internationalization can actually happen

This proves to be very difficult Here's some background notes:

* http://popcorn
cx/talks/beyond-ascii/

* http://perldoc
perl
org/perlunifaq
html

* http://perldoc
perl
org/perlunitut
html   

* http://juerd
nl/site
plp/perluniadvice

So, although the MIME encoded-words can handle UTF-8, the rest of Dada
Mail can fumble It is, honestly, a very hard problem to solve

Never the less! Most of Dada Mail now has the, "UTF-8" character set
as its default :)

One last thing I'll mention is that this snapshot is the first to give
you easy access to the individual log that each Mass Mailing creates -
in the individual mailing monitor screen, you can click on the link
entitled,

Open Mass Mailing Log in a New Window ->

And it'll do what it says it does It's pretty rough, but may prove
interesting information, nonetheless

Any and all feedback appreciated ;)
