General Help & How-To / no idea
« on: June 19, 2008, 09:08:50 am »
@jed - I have a large list broken into batches of 10k and that's why I was asking.

I don't care about the order the lists are processed, but I'm wondering how the scheduler handles more than 1 broadcast request per day.

Still waiting to hear on this question...

General Help & How-To / how about broadcasts?
« on: June 18, 2008, 01:40:38 pm »
hi - as a followup question can I use the scheduler to schedule 10 emails per day (1 per list)?

Does it handle multiple broadcasts per day this way?

Thanks.

General Help & How-To / suppression lists?
« on: June 04, 2008, 01:42:33 pm »
I have lists of emails that I want to be filtered out from the mailing. This is called "suppression list" and common in affiliate marketing where the merchant has a list of unsubscribes that all affiliates need to supress from their mailings.

I've searched the forum and help but don't see much talk on this topic other than this sticky thread.

How can I set up a mailing to a list, and specify lists that I don't want the mailing to go to???

I hope you're not going to say we need to use SQL code...

General Help & How-To / Solved

Hi Dean,
I got it working after poking around some unix tutorials. Procmail exits once it finds a match, so you need to use conditional syntax or use the "c" flag in procmail which basically clones the process.

Here's my .procmail if others need to do this. Basically what it does is sends the email that was coming in to signupemail@mydomain.com on to the listmail signup script which I set up under a shell account "shelluser" (to add them to the mailing list etc.) AND sends a copy of the original email to my own email address (myownemail@myotherdomain.com). The { and } create a block. Note the ! means fwd and the | means pipe to the script.

DEFAULT=$HOME/Maildir
MAILDIR=$HOME/Maildir
PMDIR=$HOME/.procmail
SHELL=/bin/sh

:0
* ^TO_signupemail@mydomain\.com
{
:0 c
| /home/shelluser/signup-list1.cgi

:0
! myownemail@myotherdomain.com
}

Cheers,
Peter

Hi,
I got the "send an email to signup" process working on Dreamhost (worked first time!), but realize that I'm not getting cc'd on the initial emails people are sending in.

This is handy to have if I ever need to prove to someone that they did subscribe, and for tracking my marketing efforts.

Is there a way to get cc'd by the signup cgi process, i.e. a copy of the original incoming email sent to my own email account?

Thanks,
Peter

Hi Dean,
I'm trying to learn how to have someone subscribe to a list by sending an email. So I'm in the lmp online help but no matter what I click on the left menu I get the same Intro help page showing.

I'm using Firefox 2.0.0.4, win xp.

Help with the help! :)

Thanks,
Peter
