Problems with uncompress_dada.cgi

May 28th 2019 PST

Hi,With version 11.4, I noticed a problem with the uncompress_dada.cgi.  It would not run properly and install dadamail.  I tried 3 times and it did not work.  I finally edited uncompress_dada.cgi from 11.2.9 changing the name of the tar.gz file to the current version and the script worked and installed version 11.4.0.  I did not look at the actual code to see what was different but something changed because the new version of uncompress_dada.cgi definitely did not work but the old version with the c ...Continue Reading

Upcoming changes to Tracker plugin - Google Maps API Key requirements

May 9th 2019 PST

Howdy everyone, Looks like Google Maps is going to require getting a key (and thus a Google Cloud Platform account) to utilize it. There is a free-tier pricing and most all of Dada Mail's Tracker plugin use will most likely never go above what the free tier allows. Still, pretty annoying. I'll add support to add this key to the config of Dada Mail, but most likely, I'll also disable these map charts from being shown, unless the following are established: [*]A valid Google Maps API Key [*]Logging IP Address info T ...Continue Reading

Re: AWS

April 25th 2019 PST

Sending via SES is certainly something I suggest to clients that are having problems with the mail server provided with them. Sharing a mail server in a shared hosting situation is always less than ideal, as any abuse from others using the same mail server could impact you, and running your own mail server can be quite a PITA. I think to maximize deliverability with SES though, you want to make sure to set up your DKIM keys/DMARC and perhaps set up a proper SPF record. -- Justin J: Lead Dadaist.url: http://dadamailpr ...Continue Reading

AWS

April 24th 2019 PST

If you use AWS to send out emails using Dada Mail, how please are you with this setup? I'm finding that my emails are getting opened less and I think it's because their not being delivered using my outgoing server. Would love any input or tips. -- Warm Regards, Kelly Ling ...Continue Reading

v11.3.0 Coming Soon!

April 24th 2019 PST

Hello everyone, I'm in the testing phase of v11.3.0 at the moment so the release should be imminent. This release really features working some kinks out of the unsubscription process. Many of my clients have talked about receiving unsubscription notices from users they know definitely DO NOT want to be unsubscribed, and it's a mystery on how the heck they were removed - the user themselves says they didn't do the unsubscription. Putting them back on just leads to them getting removed again after another mass mailing. Fr ...Continue Reading

Re: v11.2.8 Released

March 4th 2019 PST

OK - v11.2.8 is officially officially out - problem on my end with the email theme template creation. I didn't bump the version number as the core of the app was the same (although I should have...). The SHA Checksums is now different for Pro Dada: a8ccc20aaa0aa101b51c86b9b90bd8eed926f0e01540804a420230a043f4c3b5 Cheers, -- Justin J: Lead Dadaist.url: http://dadamailproject.com email: justin@PROTECTED twitter: @dadamail skype: leaddadaist Dada Mail Announcements:http://dadamailproject.com/cgi-bin/dada/mail.cgi/list/d ...Continue Reading
