Requirements
1. Pentium or better PC.
2. Windows 95/98. NT not tested.
3. 32MB RAM or more.
4. 5MB or more disk space.
5. Access to internet.
6. At least 1 POP3 account.
Configuration of the software
1. POP3 Host, SMTP Host, UserID, Password, Text in subject line to subscribe,
Text in subject line to unsubscribe are all a MUST to fill in.
2. Please also specify whether your ISP uses SMTP or ESMTP.
If SMTP, please uncheck Allow Authetication check box.
If ESMTP, please check Allow Authentication check box.
Please also specify whether ESMTP uses the same UserID and Password
as POP3, otherwise, please specify UserID and Password for ESMTP.
3. Put a text like "subscribe" in Text in subject line to subscribe. This
will be used to match any incoming mail that has this word in subject
line and the user will be added into the database. Do the same for
unsubscribing. Since this program allow management of multiple ezines,
please specify each of them identically to avoid unwanted error.
The filter of the subscribing and unsubscribing command is exact
match but case insensitive. Thus "Subscribe", "sUbscribe" are
all same with "subscribe". However, "Suscribe", "subcribe" are
not same with "subscribe". More than 1 word is allowed.
There is possible to use your regular email address as subscribing
and unsubscribing request from your subscriber. However, caution
is needed when try to check mail. Please use EzineMailer to check
mail before your regular mail client.
This is because EzineMailer will filter whatever email with
subject line text matching subscribing command that you specify in
program configuration and delete the email from mail server. This
will ensure each subscriber that send subscribing email request
to your regular email will be added into the database. The same
goes to unsubscribing.
e.g
command for subscribing = "subscribe" in subject line
Say 10 emails with the above command in your email like you@a.com
Total email messages in you@a.com = 20
Email client : Eudora Pro
If you check mail with Eudora Pro before EzineMailer, all 20 emails
will be downloaded and 10 emails with subscribing command will
be treated as normal email. You most probably will miss these
10 email addresses when you check mail with EzineMailer.
If you check mail with EzineMailer before Eudora Pro, it will
first filter the email, match 10 emails with the command stored
in configuration file and subscribe user into database and
finally delete it from mail server. Later, check your email
with Eudora Pro, this will get 10 email messages.
REMEMBER DO NOT DELETE EZINE NAME "DUMMY" IN EZINE MANAGER BEFORE
ADDING ANOTHER INTO THE DATABASE. |
