This page roughly describes the screens of the newsletter manager

Mailing profiles

Displays a list of all subscribers in the database. Clicking on a name opens the detail screen of the selected profile. In the detail screen subscriptions can be turned on and off.

Newsletter types

Each sent newsletter had exactly 1 type.

• template: defines the look and feel of the newsletter
• website: the URL prefix for all the links in the newsletter. E.g. http://www.mydomain.tld
• reply address: the address that appears when the receiver clicks on reply-to

Mail groups

A newsletter can be sent to one or more mail groups. Users are subscribed to one or more mail group. A CSV file can be used to upload multiple (new) subscribers to a mail group.
The format of csv file is: comma seperated, fields surrounded by ", format: "First name", "Middle name", "Surname", "E-mail".
The newsmanager doesn't handle double items well, so if you're not sure about double items, use the following (or excel 2007) to make sure your fields are unique:

cat *.csv | sort | uniq > merged.csv*

Domain & subscription form: this combination defines if the group may appear on a subscription form on a the selected website (if implemented).

Mailings
