Re: Trying to Understand DADA Mail system
For another application (a calendar, not a mailer) I have built my own separate subscriber admin screens using php. They are password protected so they are secure and their only purpose is to manually add or edit subscribers. It's quick and easy to use. If you have that capability, I can provide some pointers.
I haven't created them for Dada because I don't use the subscriber fields other than the email address.

I am comfortable using computer systems, but I am not familiar with PHPMyAdmin. Can you give me more details, or a screen shot.
The people on my lists tell me every so often they have a new e-mail address and want me to change theirs. Right now I am using GoogleGroups and they do not even let me add people anymore. They stopped it about a year ago. I have to invite people to join. It is a real headache.
Also you mentioned that you run a list for parents of gymnysts. How does one establish the "name" of the list? Can you pick any name you want and do you get to use your own domain name or does it have to end in dadamailproject.com?
SeymourI'm not sure if Justin is in town right now, so I'll answer. Yes, that is all possible and one of the reasons that I am using Dada for a gymnastics team list. Without the ability to add and remove addresses myself it would be impossible to manage the lists I run. One note, though - changes can't be made through the admin dashboard by the administrator, but it's easily done in MySQL if you are comfortable working in PHPMyAdmin. Add and removing addresses can be accomplished via the admin dashboard.
Warm regards,
Mary AnnI am considering trying out using the DADA mail system for using it with several lists I run for a homeowners board.
I am wondering if this system works like the L-Soft listserv where the owner can add addresses, change them, and remove them at any time.
Could you give me some feedback.
Seymour
