Re: Big Feature Time: a show of hands on which way to go

August 7th 2013 UTC

On another note... and while you are watching... :) Justin, Do you use an IDE and/or have integrated debugging, or any step through type of debugging suggestions? I ask because I created a postfix recipe for the bridge so there was no need to create an individual mailbox and pipe command for each list. the inbound email for the list is @ Create a SQL virtual alias map that looks like: query = SELECT CONCAT(list, '@ internal-placeholder-domain.') FROM dada_settings WHERE setting='discussion_pop_email' AND value=' ...Continue Reading

I use it both ways. I have a webpage that updates based on PHP/MySQL that is sent daily on a repeating scheduled mailing, and I also use it for plugging in one-off mailings that go out within the month.

Re: Big Feature Time: a show of hands on which way to go

August 7th 2013 UTC

This is for a sports team and it's private. There are multiple lists for various purposes, and when I have to remove or add someone to/from multiple lists (a family joins or an employee quits, for example), I have to switch between all of the lists to be sure I got them all. That said, while I would be interested in the feature you mention, I really don't know anything about using amazon and how difficult it is to implement and maintain. As a non-profit booster club, we can't afford any added expense (see, I don't ...Continue Reading

That way, pressing, "Back", or revisiting the screen would always load up the saved draft.

Why not just have a little dialogue box that pops up, that says, "hey, test message is ...Continue Reading

Not sure if this is relevant. I wrote an application that medical resident use to keep notes on their patients. They wanted a similar thing. What I did was use a jquery autosave library to take the form, asynchronously post it to a backend routine which serializes the data into a kind of draft object and stores it in the db with the patient identifier. Then, if they get disconnected, or just leave the form, and don't save it, the next time they access the edit screen for that patient, the first thing the app does is ...Continue Reading

Thanks for everyone's feedback! Looks like, "Save as Draft" is the winner here. To address some of the questions/comments: On Aug 6, 2013, at 10:43 PM, H.E.

Got it installed and it's wonderful - I can't believe I didn't realize that it was available and still compatible. This will save me a ton of time. Thank you!
