Discussion List Improvements Coming Soon

 
From: "Justin J justin@PROTECTED [Dada Mail Developers]" <dadadev@PROTECTED>
Date: July 9th 2020

Hello everyone,

A few new features will be found in the next version of Dada Mail concerning discussion lists, both dealing with moderating.

The first is being able to set exactly what addresses should need to be moderated, rather than, "everyone" or, "everyone, except these people".

Similar to this, you can set to only moderate subscribers who have only been members for a short period of time, like a day or a week, or a month. That should stop abuse from members who have just signed on.

Also, I've added the ability to auto-reject messages that have been in the moderation queue for a while - say 1, 3, or 7 days. This should help keep that moderation queue nice and clean, and avoid having to manually delete old cruft.

Finally, I'll be adding the ability to auto-remove archived messages that are older than, "x" years. Old archives messages do have the tendency to potentially bloat the backend database, causing slowdowns. Discussion lists tend to be long-lived and high on the number of messages sent when compared to announce-only lists.

Look for these in v11.12.0

Cheers,

--
