Re: New sub/unsub confirmation links

February 14th 2013 UTC

I've set up the new confirmation system on the Dada Mail that's on the support site: http://dadamailproject.com/cgi-bin/dada/mail.cgi If it moves you, please test it out, by subscribing/unsubscribing from one of the lists. As far as I can tell, everything's working well. I still have a few small things to work out, but I hope to get this all released soon, ...Continue Reading

A timestamp is also applied to the table structure, so we can say: after one day - remove the row. We can even use that token to log things with - so not only can we log t ...Continue Reading

New sub/unsub confirmation links

February 11th 2013 UTC

Hello everyone, I've started work on a long-overdue re-haul of the confirmation link system in Dada Mail. Currently, you'll notice that confirmation links have embedded in them the Mailing List the sub/unsub confirmation is for, the email address the confirmation is for, and then the mysterious, "pin" number, which is used to verify that the confirmation is real. There's a few shortcomings to this system. The big one is that pin number: it's neither random, nor unique - nor does it ever expire. You can ...Continue Reading

Dunno, there's only going to be one way that cookie is going to be set, and that's by logging into a Dada Profile. You could search the logs for that address, see where/when they subscribed, etc, ...Continue Reading

Answering myself here - I deleted the cookie and the problem disappeared. Justin, any idea why a cookie would cause the email address to be hard-coded in the page?

odd issue with unsubscribe form

January 31st 2013 UTC

I had a person reply to a newsletter mailing asking to unsubscribe. Instead of doing it from the admin dashboard, I clicked the unsubscribe link in the email, which is set to take the person to the form rather than automatically unsubscribe them. Oddly, the email field is not fillable - it's prefilled with an email address that doesn't belong to the person receiving the mailing. I can't highlight it and delete it so the form is useless. This is only in Firefox. The same page in Safari and Chrome works fine. I've cleare ...Continue Reading

Inserted Pictures Converted to BMP

January 30th 2013 UTC

When I insert a JPG picture into an email (I'm using the 6.0.2 default WYSIWYG editor) by the time it gets delivered, it has been changed to a BMP file that is 5 to 10 times larger than the original making the email much larger than it should be. I have tried it using several different OS and browsers and the result is the same. Anyone know what is making the conversion to BMP or how to prevent it? Carl ...Continue Reading
