Word to MHTML
This is the most exciting feature we have added. We found that most of the end users of email modules really struggle with correctly formatting HTML messages. The end result was an email that looked very unprofessional and often would not format correctly in emial clients like hotmail.
To overcome this problem we created a feature that allows the end user to create their message in MS word (2000, 2002, 2003, 2007 .doc, .docx) and have the document turned into a correctly formatted mhtml message. The end result is a professional email message that will render like the word document at the client end.
HTML to MHTML
Using your preferred HTML editor and CSS locally to create an email message. You can then use IE7 to save the message as a .mht file. This can then be sent to users to deliver a complete viewable email messages that takes advantage of the features that mhtml offer.
Import Custom Lists You can send email to DNN site users, or import from a .csv or .xls file to custom created and managed email lists. This import will robustly work with 100's of 1000's of email addresses.
The importing of custom lists include additional fields for use with the Token System. First Name, Last Name, Display Name, Email Address.
Contact Importing form your email clients We have added the ability to see your contacts in the module and easily import 1 or all of them into the campeign.
Campaign Management
Each email out is tracked as a campaign for management. You can view the progress of the campaign and access a past campaign for reference or resend.
Read Tracking We have included the tracking of email messages, allowing you to see how effective your email campaigns are by way of read receipts.
Token Profile Data We have included the ability to put tokens into your email messages (including the word documents) that allow you to pull custom DNN profile data and include it in your email message. This feature will allow you to personalise messages.
For example. If you create a profile item called "Hair Colour" in the DNN profile data, you could then include a token [Hair Colour: the colour of your hair]. Any user on the campaign that has a value for "Hair Colour" will have the data put in place of the token. Anyone who has a blank value will have "the colour of your hair" put in it's place.
First Name: [FirstName:your first name]
Last Name: [LastName:your last name]
Email: [Email:your email]
Country: [Country:your country]
Region: [Region:your region]
City: [City:your city]
Street: [Street:your street]
Unit: [Unit:your unit]
Postal Code: [PostalCode: your postal code]
Telephone: [Telephone:your telephone]
Cell/Mobile: [Cell: your cell]
Fax: [Fax:your fax]
Website: [Website:your website]
IM: [IM:your im]
Simple Unsubscribe By using a token, you can have an unsubscribe system that is a single click for users. They will be identified by the email address that the email was sent to, and that address will be added to a block list. No future email messages will be sent to that blocked email address.
There is an option to override blocked email addresses for emergency communications.
There is an unsubscribe setting that allows you to define a URL for users to contact you and or report abuse. This can be configured by you to any URL.
Blocked Email List Management You can view, manually add or remove email addresses from the blocked email address list.
Duplication RemovalBecause you may be sending to a combination of many email lists, the Bulk Emailer will build a send list and remove any email duplications. This ensures that recipients only receive 1 email from you. It gives you the confidence to draw in custom lists from many locations.
Email AttachmentsYou can add an uploaded file to send out as an email attachment.
Control SchedulerThere is a scheduler that runs the submitted jobs from your DNN websites. This can be controlled to meter the flow of outbound email messages to your SMTP server.
Monitor the Send Progress Campaigns can be monitored in real time to see their progress. This is achieved with a java progress bar that accurately follows the scheduler and send progress.
Uses default SMTP setting in DNNThe module is designed to work with the SMTP settings in your DNN website. This means there is 0 configuration required in the setup of the module.
Simple to Install As with all the modules we produce, this module will in install in all the listed versions (see below) of DNN with ease. A single PA install file makes the install and deletion process a breeze.
Small and Fast Even though the module is feature rich in the back end with how it sorts data and queues email messages for sending, we have worked hard to keep the performance of your server in mind at all times. The behind seen operation of this module will not have significant impact on your servers.
New Menu System We have created a simple to use menu system for configuring the module. The current release does not require this, however future versions updates will call on our standard simple menu.
It Works Many of us have experienced frustrations with expensive modules that don't work. The either break or don't work as advertised. Our dedication to this working module is evident in the fact that we have sold hundreds of working modules and continue to develop all of our modules as a full time effort. This is what we do!
Built In Help The module contains help icons that actually contain helpful information. Imagine that! This assists users who are not programmers and don’t want to be.
Upgrade Path As we continue development of this module, we will continue to release enhancements to users who have purchased this module. With each purchase you will receive 6 months of free upgrades.
Special NoteWe are particularly proud of this module. It solves a serious problem for us with our clients needing to send email to multiple thousands of users. We tiptoed through a minefield of problems along the way and are proud to say that the resulting module will solve the 1000 and above email issues with DNN .
