Invoice Me: Auto-Newsletter
-
Try demo here.
- This add-on script has been
tested in Unix/Linux but not in
WinNT.
- The script sends newsletter in
"delayed mode" or "immediate mode".
- Each time this add-on (and
stand-alone) script is activated/run, an internal (background) self-check will be performed. The script checks to see if it has been activated/run for that current day. If not, it will search and send
out the pre-composed newsletter (delayed mode).
- As such, to enable the auto
mailing, you need to run the script at least once a day. It can be done by either:
- Pointing to "newsletter.cgi" from a browser. The self-check is performed once the page is loaded (NO NEED to click any button).
- Using crontab. Some servers do not allow crontab by default. If that is the case, please contact your ISP and ask them to activate it for you.
Visit our Help Document Center to learn more about setting up a crontab.
- You may send newsletters to
customers immediately after clicking the Submit button or send them
using the "delayed mode" (specify a date).
- You may choose to send
newsletters to ALL customers or selected ones.
- All composed newsletters are
recorded. You may compose a new newsletter from the recorded old
newsletter.
- Customers' email addresses are
extracted from the main data file of Invoice Me system. Repeated email
addresses are automatically omitted.
