[Dev] v1.8 General Testing

[DW]

I have made some more cosmetic changes and added a nifty little feature that allows you to expand the Quick Load menu as much as you want!

Just re-download v1.8 and replace your main ListMail folder to update.

My mailings with 1.8 are failing with a new error. See below:

Sending error. Check your mail settings.
Server said:
RCPT TO: <username@domain.com>

I use sendmail on linux and have had issues before with errors but this is a new one. Worse, when you click the resume button the same message returns with the same error and the mail will not go out.

Mu settings were using smtp. I'll switch the phpmail to get it finished.

I haven't tried to use it yet. It looks too scary :-)
I've sent you some screen shots.

toma,

Could you please submit your server information along with a note so I can check this out?  It would be very useful if I could send a mailing for you.

That, or send me the file created if you uncomment (remove the //'s) this line in admin.php and send an email:

 // $smtp_debug = '1';

Thanks

The following changes have been made to the v1.8 test distribution, available in the members area.

- added capitalization feature to message codes that deal with users' names
- added mouseover effects to most buttons
- added stretch feature to quick load menu so long subjects can be read
- updated link tracking test to use javascript instead of loading in the current window

To update, simply overwrite your old files (except CGIs & config.php) with the new ones.  You do not need to re-login to ListMail as there are no database changes.

Stay tuned, more is coming.

Hi DW,

Wow, thanks for all the new changes - can you please keep everyone filled in on which changes are coming next, and in what order, expected time, etc?

I'd like to know especially when being able to 're-send' to previous bounced users - hopefully on a scheduled basis might be included to try to re-start bounced users?

Also, as mentioned in another thread I'm really looking forward to having link tracking tied into LMP.

I'd prefer to keep my server details to myself. Youir previous attempts to troubleshoot it were fruitless anyway. The server runs sendmail on linux--which is pretty standard stuff. Perhaps you could get a testing platform rather than use my server to troubleshoot. My server is in production and not available for testing.

I will uncomment the line mentioned and when the next mailing fails I'll send debug info.

Thanks

Tom

Fixed bugs in User Selection where Search results for "<=" and ">=" were not saving properly.  Added "not equal" "!=" for searching.  Still struggling with "Not Active" on list...

Re-download v1.8 from the member area for the fix.

Small problem, DW:
v1.8 is SO good that people forget that it's still a dev. version.
I am still amazed with it.

v1.8 has just become the current distribution!

Thanks for your kind comment, Trevor!
