I have web directory, and I want to email to all the webmasters who submitted there website in my directory about some promotions so how to do that? I am using phpld version 3, so if anyone can tell me how to do that. thank you in advance
you would need to get the email extractor mod and the newsletter mod this would enable you to email them all
Tread carefully, if submitters consider you are using their email address for spam, it will not look good for you and for the industry.
Be extremely careful with what you do. If you send out too many emails at once, your hosting will probably be tripped for spam, and you will get the server's IP address temporarily blacklisted(including everyone else on it), after which, your hosting will contact you and may possibly remove/ban your account. Just be cautious Rob
If you didn't have them opt in for future emails, then I would advise against sending them. IMHO, I consider this spam. Just my 2 cents, Morty
I am just telling them about the directory up gradation only, i am offering them the option to upgrade to featured links on certain conditions and for that i want to mail them, it will be a money refundable promotion offer, nothing else i wont spam them at all, and i havent found the way to mail them so anyone please help me here.
I don't know how to do it either but this is what I do if it helps you in anyway. I email a certain category of submitters which expect it. So When they submit I put their email on excel. Then when it's time to email them I just copy from excel and paste onto email.
Hi, I'm new to directory but i think you could retrieve all the e-mails from the database with a single SQL query and then insert comma in between each email using function like implode(), if you are doing PHP. Thereafter, insert the retrieved list into the BCC field of your mailing script and send your mail with just one execution. The rest will depend on your mail server. That's my suggestion. I'm not good at words so i have sent you a pm with the code snippet.
