:: What is Dada Mail?

Dada Mail is a completely contemporary, mature and intuitive web-based e-mail list management system, which runs on most any Unix-like hosting account that can run custom CGI scripts Dada Mail is also a conceptual art project

Dada Mail handles Closed-Loop Opt-in/Opt-out subscriptions, sending complex announce-only and/or discussion mailing list messages with an advanced, fault-tolerant mass mailing monitor, supports the archiving/viewing/searching/resending/syndicating (rss, atom) of sent messages and doing all this and a whole lot more with style

Dada Mail can handle custom subscriber fields and you can use the information it captures for partial list sending based on a query and Dada Mail's email templating system allows you to create targeted and completely custom email messages for each and every one one of your subscribers

Dada Mail is bundled with additional plugins and extensions to extend Dada Mail's capabilities Some of the plugins/extensions support advanced bounce handling, clickthrough tracking, mass mail scheduling, blog interfaces of archived messages, AJAX subscription form trickery and lots of other surprises

Dada Mail produces XHTML valid web content and sticks to best practices when creating email messages Write Once: Distribute Everywhere Dada Mail is free software that you're able to use, modify, share and enhance under the terms of the GNU General Public License Dada Mail is written in Perl because we love Perl

:: Pro Dada 3

Pro Dada is a version of Dada Mail for people who want to support the Dada Mail Project financially

For the last 8+ years, Dada Mail has been written primarily by one developer and the Dada Mail project is what's been paying his college student loans and helping him develop as an active, prolific, exhibiting Artist Thank you for everyone's support in the last 8+ years

A purchase of Pro Dada 3 gives you a One Year Subscription allowing you to:

  • Download Pro Dada, a version of Dada Mail configured without list creation or subscription quota restrictions

  • Download the Dada Mail Manual, a user-centric manual covering most all of Dada Mail's List Control Panel, as well as installing and upgrading Dada Mail and with a few other advanced topics - over 20 chapters in all

:: The Dada Mail Manual

The Dada Mail Manual has replaced the Magic Book It's filled with all new documentation, heavily covering almost every single list administration screen as well as installation, configuration, plugins/extensions and other more advanced topics

In 3 0, there's links to the relevant topics in most every list control panel screen of your own Dada Mail installation, so help is now just a click away

The Dada Mail Manual is more user-centered than the Magicbook was, filling the need for an actual manual of the program, instead of a book of tricks

We think it's pretty amazing and is currently only offered with a Pro Dada Subscription and with our own installation services

We've put six whole sample chapters up that detail the Basic, Advanced and Semi-Automatic Installation Methods of Dada Mail, as well as Configuring Dada Mail for the SQL Backend and Upgrading Dada Mail Start reading them at:

http://dadamailproject com/installation

Again, if you're already a subscriber (subscriptions are a year in length), start downloading and reading the new Dada Mail Manual, as well as grab a copy of Pro Dada at:

http://dadamailproject
com/pro_dada

If not, go ahead and help support the Dada Mail Project:

:: Professional Installation Services

Get a professional installation done by us with many plugins and extensions offered (7 in all are included at the base price and many more can be added for a little more extra)

Let us upgrade your current Dada Mail - no matter what the version is to 3 0 and keep all your old list subscribers, settings and archives You'll also help keep the Dada Mail Project afloat

Here's more information:

http://dadamailproject com/installation/request html
