Hey Justin,

I haven't had much luck (and haven't really tried either) at getting the bounce handler to do anything for me So i don't really know what it's capabilities are in terms of managing bouncing addresses Is it possible that it sets (or could set) this list_type DB field such that it stops trying to send messages to addresses that bounce? Or does it just send the bounce messages to a special email address?

I believe you told me that 'black_list' is one obvious alternative the normal 'list' value in the list_type field Are there any others?

Speaking of busy, the Dada Mail Joomla Component is up to v1 5 already Had a series of breakage on stuff I (thought I) had tested successfully in earlier builds I hate when that happens You can see some screenshots of the component at Joomlander Net Go to the DEMOS page and there should be a link that takes you to the screenshots Or you can just click on this link: http://joomlander net/index php?option=com_content&task=view&id=15&Itemid=60

Cheers, Bruce

Heya everyone,

I've made some changes to the bounce handler Along with the other changes I've mentioned, I've made the score cards list-specific, instead of global In fact, all the rules are now (again) list-specific and the good thing is, you still have to only set up one bounce handler address for the entire installation Right now, the score card is saved in a DB file - I may have the option to also have the scorecard us an SQL backend, since the SQL backends seem to be easier for people from other projects to work with and integrate Dada Mail with their own stuff

You can now run the bounce handler to only work with one list at a time, either on the command line, or through your web browser, which is kinda neat Any bounces that have to do with a different list are just left there for later

I just recently made it possible to set the required/optional plugin variables in the Config pm and the outside dada_config file for the bounce handler and now this is also true for dada_bridge pl and Beatitude, the scheduled mailer Also for Beatitude is the ability to set the cronjob using a URL, instead of having to use the command line interface, so this makes Beatitude basically a zero configuration plugin - just upload it, chmod 755 and you have Beatitude (Just set the cronjob)

Beatitude has also gotten very preliminary support for the FCKeditor for its HTML message stuff, which is sort of neat For a fun semi-hack, install FCKeditor with the file manager/quick upload support:

http://mojomail
sourceforge
net/support/documentation-dada-2_10_14/faq
pod
html#how_do_i_get_the_file_browser_working_in_fckeditor 

And create an HTML message, with images in the text box labeled, "Use the following HTML as content: " and then check the option:

 Images in this Webpage Should: be embedded in the message itself

In the advanced options and the images in your message will be embedded in actual email message That's kinda neat too

Also concerning Mystery Girl, dada_bridge pl and POP-before-SMTP authentication, I've finally, finally ripped out all the unique POP3 login code and made a new module that holds just one instance of it

Finally, Bruce @ Joomlander has been quite busy on two Dada Mail/Joomla! projects:

Dada Mail Subscriptions CB Plug-In v1

Dada Mail Manager v1

He's pretty close to almost completely implement the admin side of Dada Mail and I think he's working on his own subscription confirmation stuff Neat!

I'll probably release an alpha version of Dada Mail, if anyone wants to test it out; If there's something specific you want my attention with, lemme know;
