General Help & How-To / Preventing Spam on Forms
« on: December 07, 2007, 12:15:24 pm »
I've been trying to integrate this http://duggmirror.com/programming/Preventing_SPAM_without_using_a_CAPTCHA/
on my listmail form to prevent spam, but I can't get it to work.

I don't have a lot of experience with code, so I wonder if I'm missing something. Has anyone successfully used this code with a listmail form and, if so, how'd you do it?

Thanks!

General Help & How-To / Only 2/3 of my list mailed
« on: March 01, 2007, 12:37:35 pm »
Hmmm...

In trying to figure this out I realized that yesterday I installed Dynamic Spam Rejection with RBLs 1.0 on my domain.  Does anyone know if that can affect my mailings?  

I thought it would only work on incoming emails but I wonder if it didn't affect my outgoing mail...

General Help & How-To / Only 2/3 of my list mailed
« on: March 01, 2007, 12:16:09 pm »
Something very strange just happened.  I sent an email to a list of 3024, but only 2243 were sent.

When I first sent the email, it said it was sending 2243.  The mailing has been completed and according to the sent messages log, only 2243 were sent.

Can anyone explain this to me?  I send about one email a week to this list and this has never happened before!

Thanks in advance,
Jen

Dean,
I'm a little late on this feedback, I know.  But I just started making use of the  "Additional Operations" and "Follow Up Options" in the List Settings and I had to tell you that THEY ARE AWESOME!!!  They make life so much easier.  Thanks!

General Help & How-To / Amember Integration - Unsubscribe Trouble?
« on: December 30, 2006, 12:59:52 am »
Hi Everyone,
I have a quick question.  I've read conflicting things about amember-listmail integration.  Can someone who uses it please tell me:

I believe that when a user subscription expires in Amember, the user is automatically unsubscribed in Listmail, BUT...  

When a user unsubscribes from emails in Amember, are they automatically removed from their Listmail list?

Hope that makes sense.  Thanks so much to anyone who can answer that question for me!!
 :D

General Help & How-To / Mailing stops
« on: November 15, 2006, 08:57:20 am »
Dean,
I have the exact same problem.  I have the latest version, and I also changed the smtp timeout to 60.  But I still get this message every hundred or so emails:

Quote
Sending error. Check your mail settings.

Server said:
RCPT TO: <email@address.com> (it lists a valid email address)
250 2.1.0 ... Sender ok
250 2.1.5 ... Recipient ok


Please help - I have been trying to figure this out for weeks!  I can't check the log because it doesn't give me one when the mailing stops.

Thanks very much,
JK

General Help & How-To / Ban email addresses in ListMail Pro?
« on: September 13, 2006, 07:26:50 pm »
I followed your suggestion and tried the signup page, which allowed me to signup using one of the banned email addys.  This prompted me to check the signup.php and I found that it was the original file without my ban prompts in it...  :shock:

Not sure what happened there but I copied the new file back out and it is working again, my signup tests showed that it is prohibiting signup by these addresses again.


Thanks,
Nicole

General Help & How-To / Solution Not Working
« on: September 12, 2006, 05:37:03 pm »
Dean,

In the signup.php I inserted the following lines as directed:

if(strpos($email,'@hotbox.com') !== false
 || strpos($email,'mnebs@odfyuft.biz') !== false
 || strpos($email,'nilap@gmail.com') !== false
 || strpos($email,'dgfdt@dpfyudf.com') !== false
 || strpos($email,'nilap@gmail.com') !== false
 || strpos($email,'nilaw@gmail.com') !== false
 || strpos($email,'nilad@gmail.com') !== false
 || strpos($email,'nilaz@gmail.com') !== false
 || strpos($email,'dloolik@mail.com') !== false
 || strpos($email,'ujxtc@odvyhg.biz') !== false
 || strpos($email,'buyeewers@mail.com') !== false
 || strpos($email,'bolen@yahoo.com') !== false
 || strpos($email,'dgfdt@dpfyudf.com') !== false
 || strpos($email,'volaazased@mail.com') !== false
 || strpos($email,'dfyuh@nxvops.biz') !== false
 || strpos($email,'gavaldi@yahoo.com') !== false
 || strpos($email,'brodwich@yahoo.com') !== false
 || strpos($email,'dorwin@yahoo.com') !== false
 || strpos($email,'ixfcif@dpfytws.net') !== false
 || strpos($email,'man555@yahoo.com') !== false
 || strpos($email,'xofts@paeqx.org') !== false
 || strpos($email,'xarense41@yahoo.com') !== false  
) exit('This email address may not subscribe.');

The largest spam signup offender is @hotbox.com.  After implementing the new php file on Sept 7th, I tested it by trying to sign up for the newsletter on the website and the testing was successful.

I have however, just received 7 New Signup notificaitons for: generic_viagra@hotbox.com, paxil@hotbox.com, costume@hotbox.com, fiveonike@hotbox.com, cingular_ringtones@hotbox.com, amoxicillin@hotbox.com, & soma@hotbox.com

Any ideas?


Thanks,
Nicole

General Help & How-To / Ban email addresses in ListMail Pro?
« on: September 07, 2006, 03:56:33 pm »
We have had an enormous amount of spam email addresses subscribing, even if they are deleted/removed, the resubscribe the following day.

Does the new version address this and enable a ban feature to be used in lieu of the programming lines you have noted below?


Thanks,

General Help & How-To / Host says email is fine
« on: July 28, 2005, 08:35:00 am »
Hi Dean,
I submitted my server info to you for tests, and talked to my web host.  They say the records show only one email to each recipient.  Any luck on your end?  I really need to fix this problem.  Thanks!

Since the last upgrade, some of my subscribers are complaining about getting double emails.  Everyone that complains is only subscribed once, and I cannot figure out why this might be happeneing.  Any clue?

General Help & How-To / Send Mail Prob - Need Help
« on: January 10, 2005, 10:01:02 am »
Hi Dean,
I often use the "Send Mail" function to a list of just over 1100.  For the past month, all my mailings just stop after sending about 80 messages.  I have to constantly press the "Click Here" button to keep them going.  I never had this problem before.  Any suggestions?

General Help & How-To / Cron Set Up, But DailyMail Not Running
« on: November 18, 2004, 06:08:30 pm »
I AM going to hit you, Dean!   :lol:

I did have follow ups scheduled that weren't sending.  Turned out the the wget file was in /usr/local/bin/wget instead of /usr/bin/wget.  I just got the dailymail report and a follow up to a test address.

Thanks for the help!

General Help & How-To / Cron Set Up, But DailyMail Not Running
« on: November 17, 2004, 09:17:50 pm »
Hi,
I set up a cron task to run my dailymail, and I am sure it's set up correctly because I had my host tech support walk me through it.  But dailymail is still not running.  Am I missing a step??
Thanks in advance!
