HiMy penny worth.On one installation we only send to people on a fixed mailing list but there are three or four different types of message some of which have virtually the same text at each mailing. Can we have a means of having multiple templates where we only have to add in a short additional message or different attachment. Selection by meanas of a tickbox would been good.Best regards--*/Martyn Davison/* We want to hear all your funny, exciting and crazy Hotmail stories.

Hi Justin Some good thoughts below and a few more from us which may help/help not! 1. Installer It would be great to have it more like Wordpress or Piwik where it will notify you of updates and 'upgrade itself' quite happily (making database changes, downloading and installing new versions etc.). I know to start this process is probably a lot of work, but you might want to involve some of the rest of us with this to help with the burden as once it's done, it will work great. 2. Plugins Wordpress (notice the theme ...Continue Reading

Justin - I'd like all subscription fields to be included in the unsubscribe notice. As it is now, you only get the email address which often cannot identify the user. The fields could be buffered somewhere and then after the user is deleted, the buffer could be included in the email notice.

Here's some of the projects for Dada Mail I'd be interested in working on: Installer ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ I'd like to see an installer for Dada Mail - something like what Movable Type (or whatever blog system) has - just visit, "install.cgi" and you get a little wizard-thing that guides you and makes the necessary directory structure, SQL tables - that sort of stuff. This opens a big can-o-worms, since, after you make an installer, eventually someo ...Continue Reading

I'll reply to the compiled ideas in a separate email, but I just wanted to touch on this: > Send a single message to all lists that does not send duplicates to some users who are on more than one list. This has been reimplemented in Dada Mail, in the Multiple Mailing List Sending feature: http://dadamailproject.com/support/documentation-4_0_2/features-multiple_list_sending.pod.html It's exactly like the feature that was in 2.x, removed from 3.x that's been re-added in 4.x, except that partial list sending is ...Continue Reading

I'll tag on this.  Most of the problems I've had happen when the blast starts sending.  It seems to take a while to assemble the email and start the process, meanwhile the Monitor page is taking up precious resources.  Sometimes it will take a minute or two for the messages to start to flow.  For a while I was getting 500 server errors and only solved them by starting over with a whole new list and migrating only the addresses to it (which may point to a separate problem, but the old list was ...Continue Reading
